Actually my dad gets it through someone at a discount, and I am not sure where that is. Considering you only have have to apply it once a season it's more than worth the cost because the bottles will last forever. Do a search on those particular products, and you will see why they are unique and work. They are not pumped up highly advertised products, but they are tried and true

I use HD Poxy or Nitro Seal on my cars.

It's all a matter of opinion there is no "Best" but just what you prefer or like

I drive a black TA...So I use black carnuba wax. It's expensive, but it fills in imperfections better than any other wax I've tried.

I believe in Meguiars. Have used it for years. My 02 is black, and I was worried in doing it for the first time. It came out awesome, and I refresh it with the Quik Detailer Spray.
