Most of the S1000 products do as advertised but I don't like the "Detail-Wax" prefer the Honda detail and or Zaino products.. To me, the S100 detail wax just smears around and more rubbing is required toget a shine out of it... The more rubbing in my opnion is more swirls in the clear coat..

I've been using the S100 detail wax for years - love it. Works for quick cleanups on bugs too.

Zaino all the way, been using it for years and have tried most everything else along the way. Zaino is as good as you can get IMO.

Zaino is good stuff, but it's hard to find unless you order online.

We've triedmost brandsat the shop ( they get pretty dirty sitting around the showroom) and if you're looking for something to put a quick shine on the bike; Mothers Reflections Advanced Spray Wax is 10 times better than anything else we have tried. I wouldn't even consider the HD or S100 brand, they do a terrible job on a dark bike and are over priced for what you get. On my own bike, I only use Mothers Sealer & Glaze, it goes on fast, lasts a lot longer than any of the quick detail stuff and doesn't leave a mess of white dust behind.
