thnx, I thought so. Had a guy tryin' to tell me I was wasting my time waxing my car once a week with Mother's Carnuba cuz every time I wax I was taking the previous coat off. (He actually seemed angry 
) I told him it's not a cleaner wax, and the only time I take it off is when I clay and polish then start the wax all over again 
I think he was just hating, or just didn't understand what it takes to take care of your paint. Anyway, thanks again.

LOL For ONCE I agree with ZaneO.
I would start researching products to provide some longer lasting results. NXT looks great but not a good topper although I found out that it is not intended as such, maybe someone will chime in with something good to put on top of it to make it durable.
I personally like Zaino for durability, NXT can get the "bling" factor as good as Zaino but the Zaino process lasts quite awhile (months here in the NW) and Z-6 is very easy to apply for a quick "shine" detail.
Have also heard good results from tropicana, adams products, and Sonus. But All I use is Zaino and Meguires products. (I LOVE meguires paint cleaner)
I can't imagine using Carnuba wax anymore, but that is just me. Shoot Liquid glass is like 7 bucks a bottle and puts a decent shine on.....

Aren't you the guy that said my SOM WS6 shine looked weak? Also I remember a suspension thread and others I've read that I don't necessary agree with you on....thats not true, you have ALWAYS been right but the topic has not always been right or wrong. Hope that makes sense! Anyways I meant nothing bad by the statement, just waiting for you to come on an bash me for being a Zaino lover again 
Although I should be nice to you I just got a dual porter buffer and I'm going to need help 
I am going into uncharted territory with this and Zaino can't save me My Black Z28 needs some work on minor scratches and swirl marks.

Well, I don't really recall telling you that you had a weak shine
Your attitude is duly noted though
I currently have Zaino on my car, but I realize that my car looks great because of the process, not entirely the product. I really don't care what people use as long as the realize the product is not solving their problems or curing cancer.
EDIT: I just found the post from 8 months ago (let go of your internet hurt feelings). I never said you had a "weak shine." I said that your car could have better depth of color if you were to keep it properly polished.
