We never said anything about walmart not having good/bad products.

I posted the link specifically because AG has a lot more experience than all of us combined with their detailer's and they explain the point of a cleaner wax.

I was all about autozone, walmart and target detailing supplies for years. Then, I ventured out and tried these "oh so expensive items" as you guys have said and couldn't be happier. There is a right tool, and while these are not bad products, there are BETTER products out there if you're willing to pay for them.

Just a few quotes from the webpage:

A cleaner/wax is best used on a neglected finish because a neglected finish needs to be cleaned. Cleaner/Waxes, or All-In-One products are designed for a large market which includes do-it-yourselfers and detailers that want to restore a bright, shiny finish to the paint but want to do it in one-step. Their goal is to get a great looking finish without having to invest the time and effort associated with a multiple-step approach which usually includes,

Dedicated compounding or paint cleaning step
Dedicated polishing or glazing step
Dedicated sealing step using a finishing wax or finishing paint sealant

A cleaner/wax doesn't need to be used, and in most cases shouldn't be used, on a car in which the paint is in excellent condition, for example a brand new car or an older car in which the paint has been properly cleaned and polished. For finishes on both of these types of cars the paint would be better served using a finishing wax or finishing sealant.
