Hello fellow polishers and shine lovers,

I have used just about every kind and brand of wax or polish on my  
cars over the years. I will be the first to say that I am not a  
chemist and do not even desire to better understand what makes a  
polish shine or a wax adhere. I have used a number of products with  
which I was quite satisfied (the usual list you all know), but I am  
always experimenting.

I came home from Encounter last week and decided to give the car a  
good clean-up. I was in one of my local automotive stores and the  
manager mentioned to me that he had been using a fairly new product on  
his car and motorcycle and suggested that I try it.

Well, I think the stuff is great. It is called "Ice" synthetic paste  
polish by Turtle Wax. My wife calls me a cynic - I same that I am just  
a skeptic and I admit that as I used "Ice" I was dubious of the  
manager's claims, but the stuff is fantastic. It has absolutely NO  
residue - none. No dust, high shine, no streaking, easy on and easy  
off. You can get it on rubber, vinyl or glass with no remaining visual  
evidence of your over zealous applicator pad. You use a special micro  
fibre cloth to remove. It is no exaggeration to say best polishing  
product I have ever used.

I know nothing about how long it will last, nor whether it is  
"healthy" for the paint. The container proclamation claims "more  
durable than the leading paste."

I am sure that there will be those on the list who know more about the  
"science" of car finishes. I am simply suggesting that you might want  
to try this product and see what you think.
