Super easy and very effective - Turtle Wax Express Shine
« on: December 05, 2014, 10:21:06 AM »

Like many of you I suspect, I am part of the lunatic fringe when it comes to detailing my "stuff". I can open up a retail store with all the stuff on the shelf in my garage.
I haven't seen anything posted on this product, so I figured I'd pass it along.
TWES is a super effective spray wax. It's great to use after washing the bike, or after you use a spray detailer in between rides. It smells great, wipes off easily, and leaves a great shine.
A few years ago Consumer Reports did a comparison of spray waxes and this was on the top of the list. Just thought I'd pass this along - if anyone else has used it chime in as well.

It's funny you mention this and I'll back you on everything you said. I was never much of a Turtle Wax guy, always liked Meguiar's or Mother's but the mother-in-law got me a starter kit from them ... bottle of the Express Shine (with carnauba wax), car wash soap with wax, Super Protectant for interiors and such and a spray bottle of tire shine.

I'm just as finicky about my car as the bike so in the winter when I can't hand wash it I use the auto touchless car washes. Before the weather turned to crap I washed the car one day, came home and wiped it down and decided to try the Express Shine and was amazed how it turned out for a winter quickie. I was able to do the car with it twice already and still have a little left. I was never too crazy about tire shine either but the car looked so good I tried that too, just sprayed a bit on an old sock and rubbed it on and it looked great too ... haven't tried the other 2 yet. It's nothing I would have bought myself, but for a gift I like what both I used did for my car. I give the Express Shine thumbs up. :2vrolijk_21:

I put a couple coats of this on my snow shovel and the snow slides off like butter ... nothing sticks!
