I recently moved into a new house and for the first time in my life I could wash and wax my car in my driveway. So I bought Meguiar's complete car care kit to get me started. For much less than the cost of a detail job, my car looks great. I washed it using the soap, removed the scratches using the scratch remover, waxed it with the liquid wax, glossed the tires, and wiped down the inside with the quick interior detail spray. I did not use the plastic cleaner, quick exterior detail spray, or the clay bars (yet). The scratch remover and wax removed all the little scratches and "spider webs." As long as the weather cooperates, I'll be able to keep my car looking shiny and new with only light dusting.
Some things to note. Like many others, I noticed that the box had some wet spots on it and some of the bottles felt greasy. None of the bottles were broken or leaky and could easily be wiped off, but I do wish they packed the bottles better. While doing all this yourself cost less than having your car professionally detailed, you do you have to put in a lot of time and effort. I worked up a good sweat washing, drying, and applying the scratch remover and wax over the course of two hours. Also, this kit isn't complete for working on your car. You will need to buy a lot more micro-fiber towels to get the job done right. Every bottle basically says apply with one towel (or one side) and then wipe dry with another. You will also need something to quickly dry the car after washing (like a "water magnet"). Also, there isn't anything included to treat the windows so you might want to buy a bottle of RainX.
I finally feel like I have all right tools for making sure my car always looks its best!

We received our package today, 2-13, even though it as guaranteed by 2-17, we have all we need to buff-out our cars, and I bought the reduced box-damaged one, and it is fine, I don't give a d if it's box is damaged, Amazon is the best, buy their 'in-house warehouse damaged stuff', a good buy.

This kit is good value for all the stuff you get. The plastic stuff didn't do much for me but the rest of it seemed to work well. I would recommend this if you get a good deal on it. Otherwise buying the things you need individually would be more economical.
Got this at a great price! 2010-01-23

Amazon had this on sale as a lightning deal and it was worth the price.
Nothing more to say ...except you can't beat Meguiar's products in my opinion.
