I bought a complete kit of Turtle Wax Ice (polish, detailer spray, applicator, and micro-fiber cloth) at Costco for $19.95.  Love the stuff.  It gives the bike a wet look after applying and the detailer keeps it looking wet.  For the cost difference between Glare and TW, I'll go with the TW.  I'm very happy with it.

I like the wash and the detailer spray, I dont know if I'll ever give up Glare, just because its ease of use. But, I havent tried TW Ice polish so let me know how it goes.

all I know is the "Ice" works great and it's about $80 cheaper than Zano and Glare.  If I need to put it on once or twice more than you would the other too, that's still cheap.  You do the whole bike and then let it sit for about 15 minutes, then just wipe it off with the micro-fiber cloth.  Makes the bike look wet.  I haven't tried it on the cars or truck yet, but it's great on the bike.  The detailing spray works just as well.

SORRY THE LINK ABOVE DIDNT WORK..TRY THIS ONE
http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/products/products/55103/car_polishes_and_waxes.html
Crummy comparison, didnt even have the polishes in there. Wax sucks, Glare is a polish, the difference is night and day. check it out.

The turtle wax Ice is good stuff, I use it on the bike & truck!! Turtle wax also has a spray detailer called Ice Spray Detailer, it's a synthetic spray detailer. It seems to be pretty good also!! I used it once today and no white residue or streaks!! Pretty good stuff, it works really good with a micro-fiber towel!! :2vrolijk_21: :2vrolijk_21:

I tried the Ice spray detailer today and it is was the most effortless of anything I have applied to my bike thus far.  It feels super slick, applied S100 Detail and Wax to part of the front fender and Ice to the other and the Ice was noticeably slicker.  I can’t comment on the shine, it was raining out but appeared to have a good sheen in my mediocre garage lighting.

Bought some Turtle Wax Ice at Wal Mart. Washed bike after a week in Sturgis. Applied the ICE. WOW, Easy on easy off. No white power. Paint now has a "wet" look to it. Worked well on plastic and chrome surfaces too. Also doesnt creat static cling for dust. I am impressed. Great advice from the website again. Thanks Guys!!

Looking to find where I can get some Fukken wax, no kidding that's what it's called. Have seem a couple of bikes that were waxed with it. The riders were given a promo sample, but know one I know can find a dealer.

Tried this thing called the internet.  Google gave up this.  Named vendor of the product sells it through their own website.

HERES MY UPDATE ON ICE...
PROS....GIVES THE BIKE A WET LOOK. (I PUT ICE ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE BIKE AND MY WAX ON THE OTHER SIDE AND RODE THE BIKE TO SEVERAL WATER HOLES, I ASK THE GUYS IF THEY COULD SEE THE DIFF., EVERY ONE COULD SEE A BIG DIFF).SO I THOUGHT ITS TIME TOO PUT ICE ON THE OTHER SIDE. YES IT DOESNT TURN THE RUBBER MOLDING WHITE.
CONS....AFTER HAVING ICE ON THE BIKE FOR A MONTH (ABOUT 950 MILES) I FOUND 3 CHIPS IN THE PAINT. ONE ON THE FRONT FENDER,ONE ON THE GAS TANK AND ONE ON THE LEFT SADDLE BAG.
I AM NOT A EXPERT ON WAX..BUT I PUT MY OLD WAX BACK ON THE BIKE LAST WEEKEND..IF I WAS SHOWING THE BIKE IN A CONTEST I WOULD PUT ICE WAX ON THE BIKE..BUT FOR RIDING AND PROTECTING THE PAINT I WOULDNT USE IT..
THERES MY 2 CENTS ON ICE..WHAT DO I KNOW?
BE SAFE MICHAEL

I'm telling you guys...wash your bike with Dawn dishwashing liquid to strip off all the old waxes, silcone based stuff, etc., then Polish all painted and chrome surfaces with Glare products and forget about all the other stuff you've ever used...throw it all in the trash can.  There is nothing out there to compare to Glare!!!  I'm serious.  Just ask anyone who's seen my bike, BigDaddy's, 103tHunder, ReGGAB's, and several others on this site.  You want a wet look all the time with the best paint protection?  Nothing else comes close.
