any help would be appreciated

I replied to your Zymol question in another thread... can't remember it... but yeah, you don't have to follow it up with another, but it doesn't hurt. I used to use carnauba right after it occassionally.

p21s can be found on ebay, I use their POLISH every 6 months and the wax about every 3 weeks. Side by side compared to the corvette which zaino is used on, my 7 has a much deeper shine and looks metter IMO. Cant go wrong either way with Zaino or P21s, but IMHO P21s > Zaino.

'The report was by gurureports, here is the website where I got them being
number one...http://www.properautocare.com/p21spastewax.html
" This wax was recently rated the #1 paste wax in an independent test of 46 waxes! "

that's an awesome website... I can get my stuff from there now. Although I did notice that the LIQUID Souveran wax is like 20 bucks or so, way cheaper than the paste which is 70 bucks. Why is that?

i use the meguiars gold class liquid stuff. i usually put on 1 coat. then maybe 2 or 3 on the hood since the paint is the roughest there.

Nu Finish = big no no... heard it from a few folks... actually oxides the paint, and makes it fade. I knew a few folks who used it.
