Hey guys, if eShine remains out of stock for awhile let me know and I will give you some of my ONR. They will probably have some soon with it being winter and all. Maybe e-mail Chris?

Yep, it's got a little sealant in it, but no wax, so it's completely compatible with all the Zaino stuff. I use the ONR + water mixture a lot as a qd, it's cheap and looks really good.

Let me know about eshine Ian. I checked carcaresmart.com and they had 5 bottles in stock but that is in BC. I have dealt with them before.

If the website is up to date, ONR is back in stock at eshine.ca.

I do not take my car to automatic car washes. Instead, I have found the best place to get a HAND wash for $15. It is called Fine Details ( www.finedetails.ca ) and they do a marvelous job. They do absolutely everything too, not just exterior washes. Use professional equipment, as far as I can tell. And if you book appointments for a couple months (ie. every week or every 2 weeks, etc) you get a discount

WARNING I have visited several Fine Detail locations, but not all are the same. In fact, some do an awful job. The best one, IMHO, is located on Dixie Rd. and Dundas Rd. Tell them Troy recommended them specifically and it's possible you might get hooked up. The only problem I have noticed is that there some swirl marks on my car (black) after about 20 or so washes.

Oh, and it's nice, while having your car washed, to stare at all the lambo's and ferarris, and AMGs and on and on

Troy
(PS. I don't work for these guys, so don't think of this as a commercial, lol)

Great find Kevin, those reviews provide a lot of great information. Thank you for posting. I am going to call a local RV dealer here to see if they carry QEW. If they don't I will order some from eshine.
