Pledge! Works great as a quick detailer wax and leaves a great gloss. (Heard of this on a Honda VTX forum at a neighbor's place...tried it and am amazed).
Off topic here for just a second...years ago when I was a Lance Corporal living in the barracks, we had our rooms inspected every day and hard inpection on Friday. We PLEDGED the entire room, brightwork in the sinks, showers, floor, walls, cabinets, formica, you name it, it got pledged. Whole room smelled like lemons.

Worked too.

Interesting... Now that I think about it, I had a guy in my shop that used Pledge on his tool box. I don't ever remember his box looking anything other than awesome...

PS: If you spray pledge on your kids slide, they'll fly!!!!

Ryan--

Another vote for Zaino here. I have an electron blue Z-28 and use the ZFX and Z-2..It does build up over time and it is not as time consuming as it seems. On my car, the first time did take a little longer (complete detail, dawn, caly bar, etc). Now i can clean and wax it in no time. Have been using it for 6 years now and will not use anything else on my car or my bike. Just my 2 cents. Ryan

I have a distributor about 4 houses down from me so I always go through him. Let me know where you live and I can ask him if there are any hook ups in your area. If you live in the Dallas area, there are several local guys. Like I said, let me know where you are at and I will check around for ya. I belong to several camaro boards and Zaino is prety popular with us f body guys. I think someone else mentioned www.zainobros.com already. Call Sal and he may be able to tell you of any distributors as well (that is what I did). later. Ryan

I was an FMF grunt "doc" (65 - 66, G/2/7...WIA "over there")...I remember those days at Campen, Las Pulgas oh so well!

As a detailing wax, Pledge really works as well or better than any. I watched my friend use it on a Honda and the gloss was real "trick" and the anti-static properties is pretty cool! Chrome, rubber, plastic...handles it all! (Try to get the unscented or cedar scent, but they all work the same).

Pledge does do the job. I used it to spray down the springes on the front end of my '93' Springer work's great at getting in side and around those springs that there is no other way to reach.
