Waxing questions

Hi guys, just a couple questions on care care.
1. What wax/cleaning products do you use
2. Do you know any good Web site with "how to" information
3. what do you use to clean the interior dash, doors (on the inside) and leather trim
4. clean stains from the seats (I spilled coffe and can't get it out)

BTW;
I used Mr Clean car wash and it works well. It really dries spot free.
Also I used Simonize tire treatment. looks great and gives the tires a nice black wet shine and it's so easy to put on.

I did some reading up on car wax and found PS21 to be the best. As for the tires I use Armor all.

Mr. Clean Auto dry car wash does work awesome. And it leaves the car soooooo shiny!!

I have to tell you, I picked up some Oxi-clean spray from Armor All and it works AWESOME for stains on auto cloth. I got all the salt out of my floor carpet and pizza grease/cheese that spilt on the passenger seat. Can't even tell anything happened. So if you want to get out that coffee stain try an Oxi-clean spray made for cars.

Some of the guys on here were big on the clay bars, always heard good things about them, might take it to her this weekend. Other than that, I've always used Meguiars 3-step system. Cleaner, polish, and wax. Takes about 2-3 hours total, but the effect is great!

Thanks for the replies guys.
I've heard great things about Zaino and mught try that. The problem with Zaino is they have so many products. ZFX & Z1 - Z18.

Coffee stains! I worked at Starbucks for 4 years... what advice can I give here... How about some good 'ol fashioned laudry soap, in a steam cleaner? Or just a steam cleaner. I've always had good luck getting them out of darker colored clothes with just a good run through the washing machine. I believe the last time I spilled in the car, I just used warm water, and the steam cleaner solution, in a steam cleaner, a real small steam cleaner, and just went at it.
