Ive been using the wash and detailer, both work great. I guess i need to try the wax next, i wanted to see how i liked the wash and detailer first. So far its working pretty good for me.

The detailer dissolves bug guts nicely! I pick up some really gooey, farm land bugs down here and I have to use the ICE after every ride to stay ahead of the game. Otherwise, my bike looks like it's been stucco coated.

Used their liquid clay bar once, and have been using the ICE polish for a couple of years. Nice not having to deal with digging polish or wax out of the lettering on the fenders, with a toothpick the next day. Just go over everything in direct sunlight with no problems.
Having a white bike, I've yet to find anything that really gives a nice deep shine that you can see, like you can on darker colors.

Just got in from detailing my FLHX pre trade-in. I finished off the project with the liquid version of Ice and the bike is glistening. Wilkins HD should be happy to see my bike show up clean and shiny on trade-in day.

You can use the POLISH to help bring out the shine in the paint. Use the WAX to protect that shine from the elements.

If you're lookin' for a good quick liquid wax (and inexpensive), try Eagle One brand Nano wax. About $6.00 for a good size bottle. Easy on, easy off with micro-fiber towels. I use it on the bike and both Jeep and car. You can find it at Advanced Auto or Auto Zone.

Just my opinion.

Are you saying you polish first and then wax?

Thats the way I learned it, many years ago, rubbing compound - polish - wax,

I use the wax on my SUV and bike. Works great. My favorite thing was already mentioned in the fact it can go on anything. No white residue, makes waxing much less time consuming.

+1 on the Eagle One nano wax. Works great and looks great! Invest in some quality microfiber towels. I also use the wax on my shield.
