Topic: Blackout Hood Cleaner?

[bpmdu]

Just wondering what others use to clean/maintain their blackout hoods?  Currently using a product from Meguiars that I'm not thrilled with.  Have heard some good things about PoorBoys products but wanted to see what others out there are using?  I know cleaning flat black paint can be troublesome.

Currently using Meguiar's Ultimate Quick Detailer hydro polymer blah blah.  Only wax the car occasionally using Meguiar's liquid wax.  Use the detailer once a week or so and does a good job.  Have had other products cloud up and scare the poo out of me.  So sticking with Meguiar's for now. Brian

For cleaning it depends on what I suspect the problem is. A light detergent mixed with water on a cool surface takes care of bird droppings, dirt and dust. For wax that has gotten on the black - silicon and wax remover

After that I've used Lemon Pledge for years. It can create a situation where it can attract more blowing "stuff" and deepen the look of the black. Don't use any more than needed but it does remove the chalky look that the black can take on at times

Sure others have their favorite unfortunately often products we find that work don't stay around long without being changed or altered from their earlier form
