Default Perfect polish

I was at a friends house today that has many years of autobody, had his own shop in Johnston, IA, and worked at some dealerships. He paints at home on the side, just painted some fenders for some of our friends and was buffing and polishing the finished product. He grabs this bottle and wipes it down with this stuff. I was like whats that? He told me of a local chemist that came up with this stuff... I could not believe the gloss and shine from this! I grabbed the rag and ran it down the fender, smoother than silk! This stuff is great. I am going to try it on my bike. I use Mequires polish and this may be the switch for me. "Perfect Detail Spray" protects against UVrays, removes swirl marks, anti-static, no waxes, no silicone, nontoxic and biodegradable.

A polish is not the same animal as a wax or a glaze. A polis will by definition have a bit of abrasiveness to it, and will remove swirl marks and light scratches by removing a ever so slight amount of material. Now I am not saying that is the case with this product....but thats what the name implies.

This isn't the same animal as polish, wax, or glaze. There is no abrasive, squirts clear, and looks like water..

I like the Harley polish. It smells nice and seems to work pretty well. I heard that H-D can void your warranty of you use anything else.

I also have Honda polish, but someone out there said it melts Harleys. I dunno about that, but I'm not gonna' find out.

Looks good, just wondering, did you find it in a retail store?
