Default RE: Wax


ORIGINAL: NightTrainKid

Well considering that I am the **** type of guy that wet sands and polishes his exhaust before he puts it on his Firebird (don't ask), I am very picky about the type of wax I use.

I have used Zaino on plenty of different cars in the past 4 years. I have used it on daily drivers, weekend cruisers, and have even had people pay me to wax there show car before an auto show. That stuff is some of the best stuff out there. I have used Klasse, Pinacle, and a few other high priced options and everytime I have came back to Zaino. The very first time you use it, yes it is very time consuming and involves a lot of work. After that it is just the same as washing your car. The great thing about it is that the wash soap also has polish in it. Everytime you wash or wax your car you are just putting on another layer of protection. I will use nothing but Zaino on any of my cars.

Now when it comes to the bike, I started off using some S100 stuff becuase I got it as a present right after I got my Night Train. I planned on switching to Zaino when I ran out of S100 but have found myself using that period. I love the total cycle cleaner and the fast detail wax. I just had some Pure S100 Carnuba wax delivered to me and that gave the bike such a nice shine that I am just oging to stick with the S100.

There it is--- S 100... Used S 100 Carnuba on my new Vivid Black Nightrain's tins as a base,then hit it with S 100 Cleaner/Detailer spray whenever it needs it - The black paint looks flawless in bright sunshine.I use the S 100 Cleaner/Detailer spray on all my chrome including the pipes.

The spray has carnuba and bee's wax in it - Versatile and convient,it will be my main detailing product.
