Until recently, I thought Zaino couldn't be beat. I've been using it for about 5 years. Then I read about a new, patented polish called Glare by reading the blogs of owners of high end cars like Corvette, BMW, Audi, MB, etc..
This polish has a very high melting point, so it can be used on exhausts and stacks. It forms a covalent bond with the paint which the manufacturer says is warranted for a full 5 years.
It isn't cheap, and can only be ordered from the manufacturer. However, there is a Honda dealership in Arizona which sells it for a little less than $20 a bottle, plus shipping. It is called Honda Glare Professional Polish. This is their link: http://www.parkeryamaha.com/index.as...D&ProdID=29301
I tried it on my 2012 Sonata with Night Indigo (purplish metallic) paint. This car has never been in the garage, and it took a real beating last winter. I applied the first coat per the instructions, and about an hour later, applied the second coat. When I wiped the polish off with a terrycloth towel, the results were outstanding. The car had a deep rich gloss that I could actually read a newspaper in the reflection. I used it on my '05 Harley Lehman trike with Black Cherry and Black pearl metallic paint, and I have never seen it shine so deeply. Just for giggles, I even used it on my '95 John Deere lawn tractor, and believe it or not, I could actually see the reflection of clouds and tree branches in the hood. A little goes a long way. You should be able to get at least 10 full car polishes or more out of one bottle. It smells good, too. After polishing my trike, my garage smells like vanilla.
BTW I have no financial interest in this company, nor am I receiving any payment for my review. I just want to share my observations with others, who, like me, are a little more than anal about the way their rides look.
If you try it, let us know.
