What do you use to clean your XJ?
Hey guys, I know people will be going down on me saying dirt should stay on an XJ. But sometimes you just got to appreciate a good clean XJ sitting in your drive way after a wash. So what do you guys use to really clean the inside and outside of your XJ? Any favorite products or ones that you hate the most? I figured this could be a thread for others to use on what may be best for certain jobs!
I like to use turtlewx products. Wash, then wax, carpet cleaner and wipe down the whole interior with their F21 protectant. Rain X on the windows keeps the water off pretty well too.

I like to use the rainx to on the outside. Before I wash tho. That way you can get the haze off. And I use some cheap meguiar soap to get all te dirt off than I use there yellow soap it's like 10 or so dollars it is worth every penny. Highly recommend. And I agree. I like to sport a muddy xj for a few days but I also like a super clean one

Yeah the rain x is probably the thing I like most, sometimes wipers dont always do the trick on heavy rains or blasting through a mud puddle. I guess I admit that I usually don't offroading. Being in school and living in a city with more asphalt than dirt around. So typically I have it clean.

I use the pressure washer at the car wash... and only if it's muddy. Hell, I wouldn't even clean the thing if my neighbors wouldn't get mad about a dirty *** jeep sitting out front.

anyways, I use some stuff my dad uses to clean radiators and such at the shop. when he builds a custom radiator for someone or rebuilds an antique radiator, he washes it with what I call "pink stuff" after the paint cures. makes it nice and shiny and awesome. dont know what it's really called cuzz he gets it by the drum. and I use turtlewax and armor all tire foam
