Default Pics of the car.
Not really sure what everyone else gets out of liquid hi-gloss turtle wax but this is how my car turned out looking. In my opinion it looks ok, but as of right now, I just don't feel like shelling out 100 bucks for the zaino. Anything better than turtle thats cheaper than zaino...?? Also, I've always waxed and all by hand.. And would like to use a buffer, but I don't really know how, and I'm afraid of messing up my paint, so could anyone point me in the right direction??

s100 is 15 bucks from any harley dealership. Maybe it's just my monitor, but it looks like you have some mad streakage going on there.
