Turtle Wax Ultra Gloss
has anyone tried this stuff?
i bought some tonight and i'm going to go wash and wax the car in the dead of night, and the beautiful lack of solar rays beating on the car, hopefully leading to a better shine... besides if i can't fix the car i might as well make it look good

Stay on topic, no going off on tangents about your topical creams...

there are readily available polymers in most chain auto parts stores that do not have abrasives, i.e., Liquid Glass and Meguiar's NXT. Liquid Glass does have a mild solvent-based cleaning ability. The polymer generally thought to be at the top of the 'food chain' is Zaino's. it's been posted before, but maybe it's time for it to show up again....the site below is a forum centered on car detailing. http://www.autopia.org/forums/index.php

well all i can really say is that it's shiny
it should probably be tested on a car w/ better paint, but man can you see how poor my paint is now riply, scratched, orangepeely overall though it's a VERY deep shine, i like the way it looks better than the zymol, the depth is just amazingly more than the zymol

You don't need a whole day. I did mine in about 1/2 hour yesterday. You have to know the right tricks. If the weather is good, I'll do it again today.
