Post Just got a new 30th anniversary... care questions

I've just switched from a '95 Camaro Convertible to a '97 white/hugger orange 30th anniversary SS

It has all the bells and whistles, including the white leather. I've been using walmart and autozone cleaning supplies thus far, however, I really want to keep this car in great shape (it's my dream car

My brother who drives a '99 SS recommends Zaino highly; I'm about to place an order for their wax. Is there anything else I should pick up before I finalize the order?

What kind of carwash should I use? I'm also not sure which leather cleaner/conditioner I should use... I've heard Zaino recommendations and Lexox (sp) recommendations. In the past I've used armor, loved the smell and loved the results, but that was on a black leather interior.

Help! ;P I pick the car up next week, have to drive to North Carolina to get her

You should use the Zaino Z-7 car wash, it has the Z-2 polish built in to it so you polish every time you wash. You should also for best results clay bar the car unless the former owner clayed the car often to keep the paint smooth. For the leather you will want to get the Zaino Z-9 leather cleaner spray to use first and then follow up with the Z-10 leather conditioner. So all in all you want to get:

Z-1 Polish Lok or ZFX but not both
Z-2 Show Car Polish
Z-6 Gloss Enhancer
Z-7 Car Wash
Z-9 Leather cleaner
Z-10 leather conditioner
Z-18 Clay Bar

You will also need top quality towels to remove the polish and to use with the Z-6, you will want to use really good towels, white color only, Fieldcrest Royal Velvets or Fieldcrest Charismas (what I use) you will want to remove the edges (I do this for you and sew them back with all cotton thread) and you will want to only wash the car with something made from cotton.

I will send you an email.
