Great info Todd and Calgary. I'll throw one in the mix.

S100-I can remember back in the day when this was the biggest rage in the detailing community. It seemed that every detailer was using it. Who wouldn't for $15 at your local Harley dealer.

It is by far one of the easiest waxes I have every used. Application is a breeze and the looks great . Only downside is durability. 3-4 weeks at best. I still have 2 jars

Its great for those that want to go "old school"...

Divine is one of them, there are a few other ones coming. I will make sure to come back to this thread and add my thoughts/opinion on the products I got coming and using them ofcourse

The waiting part is the killer
