Anybody have a tip for cleaning the honeycomb style bumper trim on the '15 ?? I'm having a hard time getting them clean without spending a ton of time on them.

The stuff is very easy to use and doesn't leave any residue behind.
Be aware Taffy White and Monte Carlo Red have no clear coat over them. I've been finding out just how hard it is to keep my '10 Fit clean and shiny.

Holy Fit, I was hopin someone would mention ReJex as it is a amazing product! It is not a wax tho but a sealent. You should wash with dawn to remove any wax, then polish, and then apply the REJEX. .I think it's the very best choice for any car new or old.

I used a soft brush and it seemed to work well but it did take a while

is there a car wax which makes the finish more reflective? I'm about to get a purple fit sport, and I think that dark color will be very hot, hot, hot!! If there is a reflective wax, I would be very interested in it!
