I have been using S-100 on my cars for quite a while and use it on my bike. It's easy going on and off, just like butter and it shines so nice. Great stuff.

I have to give a vote for Pinnacle Souveran! I've tried a lot of waxes and this one's worked the best. On black paint, it produces the deepest, most dripping wet looking finish I've ever seen. Another good one I'm using is P21S.

Anyone know anything about these "Crystal-Glo" products that are always adverised on this site? The polish looks enticing but I've been thinking about buying some of the Crystal Glo wash because it is supposed to dry spot free. That would be helpful on the spots that my leaf blower misses

I started using Crystal-Glo a while back. I bought the polish for motorcycles and the wash and I was blown away. The shine, the ease of application
and removal is honestly the very best that I have ever used, and I've owned plenty of bikes (including showbikes) and tried every product out there to keep them in tip top shape. The shine on my rides is fantastic and I did not have to take q-tips to clean the dust in the cracks. It lasts much longer than most waxes too! All their products are amazing. Just check out some of the reviews on there site www.crystal-glo.com/usa/bike/reviews Here's some other great stuff other riders had to say about them... http://www.jpcycles.com/RiderForums....umReplies.ascx

Zanio. Way over rated, too many steps. NXT does the same.

[font="Arial"][color=#3300CC]I use Zaino and would never use anything else. The first application is a little time consuming but the end result is worth it! It's like looking into a mirror! I know of a guy that has had his Zaino kit for two years without running out. People pay him to detail their bikes for them. Pigsnot works great too but don't you have to reapply it after every wash? Here's some pics of my old bike.
