Royal Blue Wax
http://royalbluewax.com/

I've quite a variety of cleaners, waxes polishes etc over the years.

Never tried Glare. From all the discussions here it was not cost effective and required too many steps and time. For me, for the most part, it is ride or clean, doing both is tough with limited time.

At the last NYC bike show I bought into the snake oil sales for this product.
For once, something I bought at a show actually works.

I used this on the bike while waiting on the last set of parts and am very pleased with it.

One step wax and cleaner without any abrasives.

Don't know how it cleaned up everything without any abrasives, but I eliminated small scratches, swirls etc that Swirl and Scratch Remover or 3M's Finesse did not remove.

Bug juice that I thought had permanently etched into the fairing is gone too. As mentioned in another thread, I got some nice compliments on the bike this weekend at a bike event. It looked so good when I was done I almost didn't want to take it out and get it dirty.

Where I could, I used a polisher, this one to be exact with a foam pad.

I'd recommend this for those that are not into the whole Glare thing.

I buy a new bottle every year at the Cleveland IX Center bike show.

[Jock]

I'll give it a try...just ordered a bottle.

[Landshark]

I agree.  I bought a bottle at the Laughlin River Run this year and like it enough to buy a case.  I love it and so do my friends.  You will not be disappointed.

I have used this product for a couple of years and have had outstanding results!  It is sold locally here in my town.

Well, guess I need to give this a try.  Like some of the other products our members swear by, the couple I've tried have worked great.  I expect the Royal Blue to work just as described....will order ordered some this afternoon and thanks for the tip...

...too bad, Judy.  Almost got away with it but Chip is just too fast on the draw.....

You will be very happy with the Royal Blue Howard 

I don't know how Chip always catches me when I use the BLUE word but he does!

Y'all are a bad influence.  I ordered some today.  The whole once every 6 months thing got me.  If it's nice enough to wash the bike, I'd rather ride.

[08glide]

so how does this compare to bug slide? or do (can) you use them in conjunction (look out that's a big word) with each other?

Thanks porthole 

This stuff really put a nice shine on the bike.
