Go online and look at this stuff. It's called "smart wax" We use it in our detail department at my dealership (BMW) and I use it on my bike and all my cars. They also make a product called RIM. This stuff is incredible on chrome rims, it repels brake dust and once its applied, all you need to do is rinse off your chrome rims. Great stuff!
Here's the URL:
http://www.smartwax.com/
Do you guys use smartwax at the dealership because it's fast and easy or because it does a great job? What about cost?
...rim wax? Can't wait for the comment on that...

Very little diffence in any of the quality brands. Watch products that QUALITY body and paint shops use, especially those that do high end cars. Bet you will never find anyone of them using Glare or any of the other boutique products. 3M makes some excellent products, waxes etc, Mothers, Meguiars (Mirror Glaze) make some excellent commerical grade products. Rub it on straight, rub it on in a circle... main thing is to apply it with the correct applicator or mechanical polisher, applicators come in different grades, some even help to "cut" the surface, while others only apply the product and have no cuting capabilites at all, swirls mostly come from incorrect application and with todays advanced products the applicator is mostly the problem, If you don't know what to use call Max at Autogeek.com. He will not steer you wrong and makes his living selling and teaching how to use high end products.

If you have the time and don't mind spending the money ZAINO is the best. I have tried Glare that was the rave on here a few years ago. THERE IS NO COMPARISON!!!!!! It takes a little time for the first application but once it's on all you do is a little up keep. Oh and don't wash with dishwashing soap unless you want to reapply anything you have put on your bike!!! Oh and BTW I have a couple of bottles of Glare that I may just part with!!!!

I use only H-D approved cleaning and polishing products. I wouldn't want the moco to void my warranty if my motor blows up.
