I use it. I've used it for a little over a year now. The guy that details my car got me started on it and I've used it ever since. He knows the owner of tropi-car and has used all of the products since they came out and even did some testing for Steve. The 1st time he used it on my car it made the paint look great and I had never seen the red color look so bright. It's real easy to use and is easy to apply and buff off. IT lasts a good while if you use the detail spray after every other wash. It's worth every penny.

I recently switched to TC from Zaino. Price, shine, ease-of-application, all seem at least as good as Zaino. Smells just as good too...
I only switched about 2 months ago, so I can not comment on durability yet...

Very easy to use. Comparable pricing with products on its level. I liked it so much, I started selling it. I use it on all the vehicles that I detail and have never had a complaint. The new wax used on top of the polish really holds the shine!! You won't be disappointed.

i like it, but the newer car wash isnt doing so hot for me, seems to leave a film, probably switch to their original wash instead of the sheeting watch..
the QD and polish is badass
oh and Jargan is a great guy to buy from...
