Mother's Three Step Process

I know there are numerous opinions on here about what is the best wax to use and I have tried a lot of them, but I tried the Mother's California Gold 3 Step process last weekend and my bike looks better than new.

If you don't know, the three steps are after washing and drying use Step 1 Prewax Cleaner, then Step 2 Glaze Sealer and then when you think your arm is going to fall off go with Step 3 Carnauba Wax.

I did my 05 Road Glide and I went for a ride yesterday and stopped by a dealer and one of the salesmen had just bought an 07 RG in Vivid Black and my 05 Black Cherry paint shined better than his brand new bike, I am very pleased with the results it looks like a sheet of glass over the paint and smooth as a babies butt!!!!!

I am curious if anyone has used an orbital buffer on their bike. I use one on the cars and you can really get a good shine when using the proper wax / cleaner, but I wonder if it wouldn't be a bit too much on the bike. Obviously, I don't have any fairing.

And just so this doesn't appear like a blatant hiking of thread...I second the Mother's product. Good stuff.

We use both rotary and random orbit buffers on almost every bike we detail.

I use the Mother's 3 Stage on my cars, and the wax and chrome polish on the bike. There might be better stuff out there, but it's the best I've used.

RE: Mother's Three Step Process

Has anyone tried mothers polish and acan of beer.
First you wash your bike, open your can o polish then open your can o beer, get a rag put some polish on it then take the beer, drink the beer andrepeat the process, this has worked for me and I don't get tired, Ive even got some friends involved and man does my bike look good.
