I have always used Meguiars liquid wax on my bikes and have been generally satisfied (up until now) but just this weekend I decided to wash and detail my '07 Road King so I decided to try something new.  Several people here have recommended Turtle Wax ICE products so I picked up some ICE Liquid Polish and also ICE Spray Detailer.  All I can say is WOW!!!.  My Road KIng with 28K miles now looks better than it did 3 years ago on the showroom floor.  I'm going to take a trip on my CVO Road Glide in a couple weeks and I'm looking forward to giving it the ICE treatment when I get back.  I won't argue with the guys who say GLARE is the best because I've never tried it.  I will say that my Road King looks friggin awesome after using ICE.

If you think Ice works great you need to try Glare I finally got some Honda Glare a few weeks back and have done three of my five bikes it is the best I have ever used and I have tried almost  all of  them...  I can shave in the reflection on my tank....

Been using Ice for a couple years now and quite happy with it. Also use Bugslide after each ride as a quick detailer. :2vrolijk_21:

Five bikes is probably too many to have to wax and keep up with.  You can give me one if you need to...   :orange: :carrot:

My local HD dealer put me onto a product called "Original Bike Spirits" which he claimed to be the exact same product that has been sold under the Honda label.  I agree, it is the wetest and slickest shine I've seen on my bikes - amazing for a cleaner / wax.  Manufactured by Amrep Automotive Products: www.originalbikespirits.com.  I think you'll like it.

Pledge furniture polish works great for me.

I have been using Zaino for many years and really like the results but not all the steps - can anyone compare Glare and Zaino?

I was told the same thing a few years back.  I was searching for the Honda Spray Detailer and could not find it. I decided to stop and look at an out of town Honda dealer and the Original Bike Spirits is what they had. I asked about the Honda Spray and they said that it had been discontinued and that they (the dealership) had replaced it with the Original Bike Spirits who makes or made it for Honda.  I bought it and used it and found it to be no different.  

FYI- We have a Honda mini van and they sell the Honda wax and spray there too.

I used the Glare Polish on my 2011 CVO Street Glide today and have to agree with many that this stuff is the best..  I have tried many products over the years to achieve a mirror like finish and this product beats them all easily.  Awesome product.  Thanks everyone for recommending this product.
