Looks good!

I was thinking that was S100 (that or Natty's). I use it all the time, so I familiar with the glossy shine. I use it on top of Poorboy's Pro Polish and EX-P though...

It's actually S100 Carnauba Paste Wax. S100 is engineered for motorcycles but can be still be used on cars. It's formula is similar to P21S carnauba wax but at half the price. I love the stuff. Easy on, easy off.

So anyways... you can get S100 at your local Harley Davidson store for $14.95

There's alot of speculation on autopia.org as to how much of a difference there is in P21S and S100's formulas, but they're about the same in quality and look. I don't think most people would be able to tell the difference anyways. That's why I personally opt for the S100 over the P21S.

P21S: http://www.properautocare.com/p21spastewax.html

Thanks, I'll have to try the S100 then. I've been using turtle wax since I got the car because it's cheaper but i think it's time to step up and spend some money on something that's worth it. For a while I thought all waxes were the same but seeing Mogwai's neighborhood in the side of his ride has changed my mind!

lookin good. I wish I had a real color other than white when I see pics like that. I bet I have the shiniest TW civic on here though, haha. Ive washed/waxed/polished/etc almost every week for over a year now. its sooooo clean, but not like that thanks to white.


I like it, keep up the clean work.

Just one minor correction... that's Balistek's car with the S100. I just chimed in to help out. I don't have any current pix of my car with the S100, but trust me, it's the way to go.
