The best, quickest and highest shine I have found.
Quicshine 99, at about $13 +/-.
Not found in stores in my area but from a local supplier/ dealer. Look on the internet for more info.
A little high in cost but a hell of a job.
Spray application, spread out on the area, let set about 10 seconds and wipe clean.
Lengthens time for cleaning the car because dirt doesnot stick nearly as much, as well as the high shine.
It does well on plastic lens, chrome, wheels and other areas.
Let us know if anyone tries it out.

Hmmm, I've become a Zaino fan myself, Ken. Makes one heck of a shine on my black car ;)

What kind of dealer do you find it at? Can it be found at a paint jobber? Who makes it?

I have a local area dealer for the 99.
Victory Motorsports in Fla. is the source as far as I can tell.
I have not use all other polishes so there can be equally good ones.
The 99 seems not to be very prone to leavng swerle after wipe. So that I like!
My Merc has a hard clear coat such that there are not many polishes that make a big difference but 99 did, so that is an advancement for me.
It seems to make chrome glow a little brighter from just regular chrome cleaning polish.

I've never tried, or actually heard of Quicshine. Guess I'll have to ask around about it, must be an east coast thing. smile.gif

I'm with Kat on Zaino though. Awesome stuff, great results.

As far as cheap store stuff, Meguire's is perty good, better than Turtle wax for the same price, and being cheap ain't bad for those in-between show washings. :D

3M's Micro Finishing Glaze has always worked nicely for me as a polish.

The latest stuff I put on was Nu-Finish (orange round tin with black lettering) about two summers ago, and it still keeps my paint looking showroom.

Prior years I used Turtle Wax paste (2000?) with Teflon.

The only way to go is "MOTHER'S" three step process. MOTHER products have no competition.

DaddyT, ever tried Zaino? It'll give Mother's that competition you're talkin' about. ;)

Hi All

Anyone ever tried Amazing Glaze, it's an Austrailian product, they say it actually penetrates the paint to seal out all the nasty stuff and it lasts years.

Check out Here (http://www.sportomotoring.com/amazing-glaze/how_it_works.html) for more info.

Eagle One makes a real good product as well..called "Wax as you Dry"..never use anything else..put on while car is still wet..dry off witha soft towel and thats it!..cheap too...even Wally Mart sells it..twice a year I use a paste and buff in and most times even after a nasty winter day I hose of in garage and use it each day..yeah I might be a tad anal about my Lincoln but aren`t most of us?..hehe..thanks ..BoB smile.gif

Bob, does that Wax as You Dry stuff last? I use Meguiar's or Zymol for wax, but it takes me about 4 hours to completely wash, dry, and wax a car doing it completely by hand. I really should buy a buffer, but for the times when I want a quick wash and wax, I'm wondering if it will last until I can do it again.
