As mentioned above "Zaino"..........I've been using it for the past nine years, best stuff I've ever used, and their Z-8 detailer is unbelievable. Here's some photos from their customers. http://www.zainostore.com/

Agree. It is very good polish. Got my new Vivid Black Dyna Custom delivered yesterday, put the first coat of Zaino on today. The Black looks about a foot deep. I would suggest anyone with Black to pay a lot of attention to the waxing recommendations of the Zaino folks to minimize swirls and fine scratches.

Wink Wax

I,d have to double check , I believe I used Armour all cleaner and wax ,
It works great if your in a hurry for a nice shine ,
Its a red colored jell ( squeeze bottle ) that you wipe on and off with the samr rage with no drying time .
I luv it because it shows NO white film on your chrome or rubber items ..

While were on the subject whats the best thing to use on some areas of the bike that may have some dulling from where a seat rubbed or a pantleg on the tank almost need to buff out not sure.

I did the custom bike wax...pigsnot and S100 for years. I now use Meguiar's Gold wax and I get a great looking job. I use it on all my bikes and it looks great on everything. I use their products right down the line except for chrome polish..I use Mother's billet chrome polish that stuff rocks!

I hope this is an OK question. Do just about all waxes tell you to keep off rubber and leather or vinyl? The reason I ask is that my new Super Glide seems to have a rubber strip around the strip down the middle of gas tank. Thanks

My Buddy got me hooked on it.
