Here you go top of the line.

I've never heard of it before either, looks to be marketed for motorcycles.

I am familiar with their P21S, which is supposed to be "top of the line". P21S

Harley dealers usually stock it as well, but most likely more expensive than the above link. I paid somewhere around $21-22 for a can about 5 yrs ago. Sent the gf to go get it that's why I remember the price, if I recall it cost me well more than that 20 odd bucks in explanations Still have about 1/3 left.

I paid $9.95 for the S100 at my local Harley Shop just last month. Don't purchase it on line. I've found that it's way more expensive--ad the shipping. I wouldn't get to caught up in it only being sold at Harley shops either. Any motor cycle dealership may carry it as well. Definitely a BMW shop would.

Try it over #21 or NXT seems to really be the talk of the town on many detail forums.

I checked a couple of cycle shops and the range was $12 - $16.

Well, $12.00 isn't bad. I wouldn't go much higher than that though. It's my understanding you would apply very thin coats using S100. That way it should last a good long time before another purchase would be necessary.

If you want cheap. I'm definitely sold on Duragloss Aquawax sold at Carquest. On sale now for $4.95 a bottle. Don't let the price fool you. It's good. I used it as a topper over Meg's #20. It gives more of a glow than a wet shine. I'd rather have a glow type shine on red. Give me the wet look on black.

This is what I mean by a glowing type shine = red

I'm working on it right now. Taking a break. It's brutal getting the swirls and spider webbing out. I've done everything so wrong prior it's going to take a while I can see that. I did manage to get the tailgate polished--no wax yet. I have one little scratch there I can't get out all the way. Pardon the fuzz also. That's my back yard out the doorway for better perspective.

Thanks.

It's rather sloppy looking right now. Every time I grab a polishing bottle stuff shoots out the top like a geyser. Baptism by fire I guess.

Thanks RockPick That means quite a lot coming from you my detail God.

How do you quit that stupid splattering. It ruined my picture. Everytime I grab that bottle, sheesh, I got it my nose even. I'm such a slop.

Uhh... don't squeeze the bottle when you crack the top, maybe? LOL!

You might aim it at your wall or an area that you're going to be working on in the immediate future to conserve the product.

Don't know...
