Hahhaha... That's what I think too.
Too bad the MSN Group site is no longer available. I recall that topic (peanut butter) having a very threaded discussion.

Yep, I do recall something from that MSN Group forum about the oils in the peanut butter as having a cleansing effect on plastic moldings. Since my car (city'04) doesn't have any moldings that can accidentally be waxed, I never had the need to try it out.

If it doesn't work, just take a slice of bread and wipe out the peanut butter from the moldings... meryenda!

@ess: hahaha no thanks, no matter how much i clean my car i don't think i could ever eat peanut butter that came from that paint hahaha

BTW, Does anybody know the number or contact details of the local distributor of turtle wax? That or the name of the local distributor?

Since you're detailing a number of cars, then you could get the gallons of Megs APC and HyperDressing. That would be ok for your needs.

Hope this helps.

@jon: Alright thanks, i guess if you're suggesting it, then it might give good results then, and yeah i guess as compared to the other stuffs im buying abroad, gallon sizes of APC and Hyper dressing would indeed be very economical
