cleaner and wax
04 f150 lariat 4x4 screw, want some opinions on a good cleaner and wax. my truck is black. it looks like it has a haze on it, and when i wax it, it gets a film on it and it smuges when you touch it. any ideas from anybody to make it shine.

Meguier's makes a good cleaner wax...been using it for years.
If you want to REALLY make it shine - ask your local parts store if they carry auto-magic products - my father-in-law used one of their products on his 36 Ford p/u (new black paint) and the finish looks like a mirror!

Meguirers all the way. 100% Black 4 X 4 SCREW here and she shines. I use the wet shine stuff too when I wash and dry her. Use Meguirers on the leather seats too.

Really I think you could go /w a good polish cleaner first /w a pc. Every year you could clay & polish a car's finish even if your cars is brand new. If you have no experience on doing this I would recommend that you find a good auto Detailer.

Polaris: Go to Meguiars.com and order a Rx (prescription) for restoring the finish on your vehicle with their products. I have used Meguiars products for so long I can not remember not using them. They are really interested in having your truck look its best. They have help line forums etc.
Hope this helps.
