Don't have any special wax here. Got a closet full of different kinds including Rejex. MeQuiar's NXT, Der Shiny Stuff, Turtle Wax Platinum, Simonize Color Wax abd 3m Paste ...they all seem to give a good shine. One thing that does bring out the best is the Mothers California Gold Clay Bar kit. About two or three times a year with the Clay Bar will keep the surface smooth as a baby's rear end.

Ok, this was a Zaino shine:
I'll be trying Adam's next and then we'll see after that...

Same here. I've used NXT most recently (last time I did a full detail of the car) and liked it.

Darn! Maybe I SHOULD have gotten the C6 in Lemans Blue after all.

[quote=2Vettes]Well, I ordered some Adam's products and put them to use before the show Sunday. There was some confusion with the order but after an email it was taken care of by Adam and I received a bottle of detail spray for the inconvenience. Very good customer service! The ease of application in itself is making it worth my time. No mixing! I applied and removed all the products by hand and it couldn't have been easier. The majority of the spider-like fines scratches are gone! I know my car and I can tell a difference. So, here are some pictures. You already saw the ones with the reflections at the car show.
Good job Linda! The car looks great.  Reflections on dark paint colors, especially black, really show off a great shine! Can't wait to see it on our next trip down. Just promise me no more Corvette off roading! 
Now that you have that done and it was sooo easy, are you doing Robert's Vette next? 
Rich

Hi Rich,
The off-roading was not my idea! Did you see the pictures? As far as Robert's vette, he did his Saturday too. In fact, he did his first and liked the results very much. I just didn't take many pics of his vette 
It's my camera and I choose the shots I take...
