Have you ever tried the 'Glare' professional polish?  It is unbelievable.  Especially on dark color paint.   :) 8)  har!  spyder

It really is some good stuff...

The Turtle Ice is probably good for a quick detail, but for more serious work, the Glare is hard to beat.

I have the Sahara as well...bought it thinking it would be a quick thing to use on the road, and it does work, though it is not as easy to apply as I'd hoped, but with the water shortage we are likely to face this coming riding season, it, being a waterless cleaner that actually does as clamed, it may come in handy.  Washing scooters may not be an option here in B'ham next summer.... :( :nervous:

It hasn't been an option here since this past summer.  I still can't wash mine w/ a hose.....have to give it 'sponge baths' & I'm really not liking this.  You can't really get it squeaky clean everywhere unless you can pour the H too O on it.  :(  spyder

Water restrictions were finally lifted here. I got to handwash/wax my truck last week after several months. Scooter got a good detail just before the restrictions set in, and wipe downs have kept it clean for the most part.

I don't think they'll lift our restrictions, instead it can only get worse this year since they're already saying we'll be completely out of municiple water by the summer and have to start buying it from others.  Not good all around.  :( aaaargh.  spyder

We are no where near the rainfall we should be, but we've been getting some lately. Besides not enough rainfall our problem is growth, not enough reservoirs, and the reservoir needs to be dredged. :(

LOL!!!! Nope what ever grows/falls at the bottom of the reservoir so that it's no longer has the capacity that it used to. :nixweiss:

TW wax, is exactly what it says, it's a wax! You rub it on and when it's ready, you whipe it off, Just like you would wax your auto's with!! 
 The TW ice polish, is a detailer, you use it to clean the bike or auto's in between waxes!! Instead of using water, you can spray the ice polish on ( or Mothers "showtime" polish, which is what I use now.)  and wipe it down and it gives it a nice clean shine on it, without having to wash it with water and have to go thruogh all that!!
 If you use micro fiber towels, it works really well!! The detailers are nice and they are not hard on the paint!!

 Next time you are going riding and the bike has just alittle dust on it or some hand prints or whatever, you can clean & detail it with the Detailer spray and it will look nice in half the time it takes to wash & detail!!  :2vrolijk_21:

                       Hope that helps alittle bit!! :2vrolijk_21:
