Zaino is the best period! I use it to wash my cat, kills fleas and ticks and leaves him nice and shiney.
You guys do good work!

Hey, everyone has their favorite products. I started with Meguires products but quickly found poorboys quite a lot superior...
Peace and love Duckie, no offense meant and I enjoy your post so please do not flame me back. But you can flame Darktech, that I enjoy
I ain gonna bust onya lest you go get a VETTE and betray us
I just dont get that cause a Sol is much less surface area
We all need to get together and compare products.
I would hate to have something cloud or CLOD up on top of another product
Did you have to strip for the change to poorboy's?

I started with Mquires but I never could spell it right, it never seemed to remove water spots or leave the surface glassy smooth.
I then switched to perfect finish stuff that turbomagnant sold, I was really really happy with it but it was a pain to buy, you had to mail in a check etc but he is such a nice guy, I kept ordering, plus I learned a ton about detailing from him. When he sold the company, about the same time I met a guy that lived for detailing, his car looked great (go-n-def). He schooled us all on poorboys, and wow, after I use them, well you saw how the cars look. It is not trick photography, my car looks like it has a shinny liquid wet look. When I put a microfiber towel on it and give it a push, it slides like on ice. And my car is a daily driver and almost 1 and 1/2 years old.
I never worried about mixing products, just keep changing, although with poor boys, I did use a porter cable DA buffer to apply polish, then protectorant,. every couple of days I use spray and wipe (this takes off rain or any water spots in a Jiff) and wash it when it is fairly dirty. After washing I use black hole.
That is basically it and I am not a shill for any product. If I saw a car that looked better, I would switch and try something else, I just never saw one that was better.
Chuck you were using Poorboys before you even relized it, the Pefect Finish sealant is Poorboys Ex-P in a different bottle, I figured this out by accident and then asked and it was confirmed by the latest owner. I believe Mr. O So Def figured this out as well.

I know he uses other brands besides Poorboy's World, but did you ever figure out if any of his other products were PBW?
Yes his polish is No.1 I believe, and I am pretty sure that the Thick Blue Goo deatil spray is a liquid glass product, but not positive. His leather care stuff works really well, the thick stuff. I use it on my leather couch but never figured out who makes it.

Chuck and I worked together detailing the cars. It is a noticable diffrence in time when you detail cars with two people. Chuck has showed me a new way to rinse my car. The technique is called sheeting. Its freakin awsome. Once you scrub the car down and start rinsing it the water adheres to its self and takes most of all the water away. The easiest way to do this is by using the hose without a spray attachment. After washing and rinsing the cars we used spray and wipe and some black hole. The cars looked immaculate. We didn't even use Zaino wax.
Great job as always by Dark Tech, looks fantastic!!!

It might be Leather Stuff from PBW.

I can tell you who it wasn't Dark Tech is getting very good, I remember when he was just the son of a Solstice owner, and someone handed him his keys and told him to take his car for a spin, wasn't Dad he is way to smart for that, next thing you know he's an owner. They grow up so fast

Speaking of that, did you ever get your clutch replaced? Oh, and get the stain out of the driver's seat?
