Many of us use Zaino Brotohers products. Works very well.

I have used Meguiars, Blue Coral, Collinite and Zaino.
For a black car I think Zaino is the over best as far as gloss and ease of application.
You cannot go wrong with any of the above products. :D

Local Philadelphia, Pa. company Ardex makes a wax I use on my Marauder.
I have used many a wax product over the years but, nothing beats this stuff:)
If you want to buy National brand then I would go with Meguiars.

Has anyone ever head of a wax called pigsnot. This is not a joke. I knew a guy that used this wax and loved it. He said you just blew it on. No serious that was the name of the wax.

I'll tell ya it sounds to good to be true.apply it once and not have to reapply for 5 years and its cheaper($20.00) to buy it on ebay than it is on there on site. i would surely be interested the results...Me? I use Zaino!!Maybe just maybe when i am done with my supply i may try this=

Thanks for the link. This is tempting, maybe on my brother in laws Jeep first! But cant get over the name!
I use Zaino, it's either Zaino or Meguiars Nxt Gen.
I agree. I have used both. Zaino seems to last longer for me. I've tried several of the products in the Zaino line and evrything has worked well.

I think the spray wax is good for in between. I used to wax my vics every 3 mos, and spray wax after I wash. I guess its good for patching between waxes. But I know the NXT is awesome as a regular wax.

My son was a detailer and a painter. He turned me on to 3M products. I've never looked back. I use all their product on my cars. 3M perfect show car wax is the best thing I've ever used. Tried Zaino, but didn't think it was as good. Just my .02. Ray

i used Meguiar's scratch X today on a few spots on my car to try and get out light scratches from the car wash... it didnt take them out after 2 coats, put on some Zymol cleaner wax... much better

I am currently using Klasse All In One and Zaino.
Here's (http://www.supermotors.org/registry/vehicles/showmedia.php?id=169538) a pic I took today of the Vic.
Keep in mind that she has not been washed in over 2 months, but simply maintained with a duster and quick detail products. The Vic has also been hibernating most of this time in the garage.
In addition, I last applied the Klasse and Zaino in April 2004.
I am quite happy with the durability and shine, especially on a 7 year old vehicle.
More pics from this set can be seen here (http://www.supermotors.org/registry/vehicles/detail.php?id=588&s=22309#content).

I used 5 Star on my Marauder and so far is has worked fine.
I dispute the claim that dirt just washes off, I have to use a soft wash sponge.
I have a friend who manages the body shop for a local Toyota. He told me that he (his dealership) tested 5 star and found that it does wash off like any other sealant, and would not last the 5 years claimed.
This may be true since 5 star is applied on top of a sealant (clearcoat) and does not actually bond to the paint.
Since none of the direct email addresses at 5-star work, I have not been able to email the lead guy there for comment.
All of this said....even if it lasts 2 to 3 years its still better than waxing every couple of months.

I've been using the Mother's three step process for the past couple of years on all my cars. It's been working fine for me. I did try Meg. NXT and liked it quite a bit. I have a lot of Mother's on hand - may try more NXT when that gives out.
