I have used "Eagle on wipe and shine" and it has worked awesome for the last five years on my scoot.

He just suggested using a different soap after I told him about the wash off. Try it, might help a little.

I have always used good quality wash soaps. Never used dish detergent. When I tried the Tech Wax, which was about 4 years ago, I was using the Meguiars Deep Crystal car wash.

I forgot to include Black Box in my pic. I have some of that too. I still think the NXT is better and doesn't make a mess like the black stuff does.

I like the Maguire's gold class. I've had it for a while and use it once a year, and so far so good.

I'm not saying the others didn't work as advertised, I'm just saying the Meguiar's equalled or surpassed the others with a lot less work. The price ($16.95) is fair compared to the others. If you want your Vivid Black to be "vivid" you might want to consider this.
