Default S-100 Paste wax

Tried some S-100 Paste wax, and after I was done applying it, I thought, Hmmmm, don't really know what all the fuss is about. It does a nice job, but not much better then all the others.. . . . . . . . . .

but, I was out for a nice long ride yesterday, and boy did I get plastered with bugs. I have never been able to clean the bugs off as easy as I did this time, they literally wiped right off, no scrubbing required.

I'm sold. this stuff is awesome.

S-100 is a good wax product, been using it for over 20 years.

I also use it on my clients' guitars.
Makes easy to wipe off their sweat and snot.

I think it is 100% carnuba. I works best if you use the paint cleaner first.
