So I guess Jackie Chan is the next Jason Bourne?

Nowadays, I mostly listen to chill-hop/lo-fi

I think I've mellowed out quite a bit as I've gotten older (plus it's easier to listen to when the kid is around)

That's pretty cool and makes sense.

I've never been much into hiphop but a friend got me into it a little a couple years ago and we lost touch, so now I just replay a lot of old stuff lol. chill-hop is pretty good too.

Any recommendation for interior? My dad uses some armorall stuff but I thought I'd heard that's a bad brand.

I'd never use Armorall. Too greasy/oily, which is what actually makes it bad for the interior (and clothes) from what I've read.

For your leather parts, I'd suggest Lexol leather cleaner and conditioner (separate). You can find that at Walmart though.

The alcantara parts, I've read good things about this: http://www.autogeek.net/sonax-alcantara-cleaner1.html

I've never used it yet tho, so no experience. If you do order anything, I'd suggest getting some CarPro Iron-X as well since you do have some rail dust. Browse around for a sealant/wax that you think you'd like, and maybe the Meguiar's mild (blue) clay bar.

Sweet, thanks for the tips.

I might hold off on the Iron-X since most of the spots aren't really noticeable unless you're close enough to the car (basically washing it or otherwise working on it), but eventually I do want to clean them off. Unless of course leaving them on for long is bad for the paint?

Might try and order another clay bar. Already have wax that I'm mostly happy with at the moment too, so I'll probably hold off on that.

I'm terrible at trying to classify music but I do like that.

If you've got 45 minutes to kill I love this performance.

Or six minutes and something completely different.

Rail dust spots might embed themselves deeper???? Not exactly sure what happens if you let them sit for long.

$64 bucks, Sonax, Optimum stuff, and some more glass cleaner stuff. Didn't know what to buy.

Sweet! Let us know how you like the Sonax. I've opted not to get anything this time around since I still have a lot or product left. The next big sale (probably black Friday) I may get a more professional grade swirl and scratch remover for the Yaris and some Sonax for the FR-S.

So either my windshield fluid reservoir is leaking, or It must be incredibly tiny... I'm out of fluid already a second time..??? Anyone else found they have to refill their fluid every 6 months?

I've never once used my windshield fluid before since buying my FR-S new back in 2014.
