They have a product called speed shine works well in between washing. I find it works better than any other spritz.(sp) I have also used their best of show wax and find it very good. they have a hand book you can download on how to apply their stuff.

Re: car wax
Im a Klasse fanatic, but ive seen some good things done with Zaino. Here's some good tips on applying Klasse all in one and the sealent. Both Zaino and Klasse do a supurb job, but it seems like Zaino is a little harder to get a hold of. http://shop.store.yahoo.com/classic-...lasapguid.html
Oh yeah, I have no financial interest in that web site, it just so happens I buy stuff from them. I think ive already spent about $300 in detailing supplies and I still need more!

Re: car wax
I'd suggest either Zaino or Blackfire. I'm using Blackfire because it's significantly easier to apply than Zaino and gives similar results, but many really swear by Zaino. Check out the following website:

Re: car wax
I've used blackfire and I like results but it doesn't seem to last that long(stop beading after the third wash). Right now i'm using a meguiars #7 and meguiars #26 and nothing can beat the shine. I'll probably switch to zaino once i start getting lazy. I really do like waxing my car and buffing it to a nice shine. BTW, you need to use Microfiber towels if you aren't already.

Re: car wax
Black is REALLY hard to keep shiny. We did a friends black truck with Zaino and it shined so well we could see color in the reflection. Zaino will run about $60 for everything you need. I've used it for almost three years now and swear by it. Anything you can buy in a store (Pep Boys, etc) is probably not worth it. I haven't used the really high end stuff, but Zaino works wonders where others have come up short.

Re: car wax
I recommend Zaino 100%. You will not be disappointed.
Zaino on a black paint job, otherwise unwaxed. Keep in mind that this is on a 7 year old paint job...
And on lighter colors:
That's the original paint, which was not in the best condition before I started.
BTW, it takes me about 4 hours to do the initial application of Zaino. It involves 4 coats, in addition to the clay bar before, with instant detailer in between coats of Zaino Z5 and Z2. It might seem like a lot of time, but most of it is spent waiting for the stuff to dry. Also, you must wait 30 minutes between coats (that's two hours right there). Nonetheless, it's worth it.

Re: car wax
hey vince . . . nice pics of the work you did . . i always like the "im in the picture picture" -
posting pics of shine always makes me nervous though, there are so many variables and it inevitably leads to more pics of nice clean shiny cars and the "mines better than yours" debate. (I've done it too though) so dont think im picking on you
