I just wanted to tell everyone how good this stuff is. I'm not getting a commission for this :-)
I started using this stuff back in 2001 when I got my Black 2001 Accord. I couldn't find a wax that would not leave streaks, and would help with the fine scratches in the paint just from washing. I have used a LOT of polishes in my days, and I have to say I have NEVER had a shine like this stuff provided. Yes it's expensive, and yes, it's a pain to apply the first time, but the final result was worth every drop of sweat and penny. That all said and done, here's what REALLY impressed me. I purchased a 2001 Tundra, and the first month I had it, it was parked in the front of my house. On the back of my house we were sealing the Deck (you know where this is going). We used a sprayer, and it was such a fine mist it carried over the house and coated my brand new truck. I didn't notice it for 2 days. By that time it was dry. And boy does it stick. Even my windshield was coated. I tried everything to cut it, on the glass I even tried gasoline. Nothing would touch it. I emailed the guy at Zaino Bros and asked if he had any idea. I was considering having the truck repainted. The next day he personally called me and told me what to do. I had to clay bar the entire truck, not once but 3 times. Then using his polish, I applied the higher polishing compound 3 times and then the complete series again. The truck was once again like new. Once you apply this, they have a spray polish enhancer. I wash the vehicles and just spray this on and buff once in a while. Applying once a year is all I have needed to do. I'll be applying this to the new Pilot as soon as I get the chance. If you have a dark color vehicle, this is a must! Personally I will never own another black vehicle :-) Just click this link: Zaino Car Polish

All,
Zaino is the best! The wax is very easy to remove unlike other brands that you have to muscle in order to get rid of the haze and get a shine. Follow the steps and you get a beautiful, shiny vehicle. The guy at Zaino, forgot his first name is very helpful and will give you good tips on getting your shine on. Been using Zaino on my RX7 for few years and highly recommend their products. We had two group buys on the RX7 community. Someone could start it here. Zaino is in NJ.

Zaino is the best I have used. I did the dawn dish detergent wash and clay bar before I applied it the first time. I now have 6 coats on my RX8 and it layers great for a deep lasting shine. I can't wait to use it on the Pilot. It should look great on the Sage.

I use IBIZ and am very pleased with the ease application and end results. The owner of the company (Bob Nathan) is always at the Indpls Auto show and does a great demo (it dices, it slices, it makes jullian fries . . . )
I've never used Zaino so I cannot compare/contrast. IBIZ's secret sauce is "fossilized" carnuba wax. I think the Sleestacks from the Land of the Lost formed the "fossils"

Another thing I use a LOT is S100 Total Cycle Cleaner in the Aerosol can. This stiff is amazing. I use it mostly on wheels, but I also wash the engine compartment down with it too.
My wife even used to use this stuff to wash down mini-blinds when we had some! I have to be real careful when using it on my motorcycle as it will even cut the lube off the chain.
