I was hoping to get some recommendations on car detailing products? Not just for the exterior - I need to thoroughly clean my fabric seats too. What do y'all use? Thx!

Bill - I use Blue Coral upholstery cleaner on the seats. It works well for my needs. Thank you.

Thanks Mike. My 92 F150 is a bit rank sometimes. I doubt the seat has ever been cleaned other than vacuuming.

As a little back story, we've had the F150 for a few years now. The previous owner had a Maaco paint job applied what must be at least 10 years ago. The paint is far from perfect, but it is doing pretty we after all this time. Following Mile's advice, I used the M105 compound and M205 polish today on the F150. Attached shows the difference on the driver's side fender after just using the compound.

A couple of weeks ago, my old boss asked me to help him sell a car he had inherited a couple of year ago from his grandfather. He and I had talked about the car before, but I had not seen it. Last week, Jack, Debbie, and I went to take a look at it...
