He may just be more OCD than I am about detailing.

P21S and Menzerna for me. Re-Sealed the Nismo last night, and out for some waxing later today.

I use all Adam's wax and polishes. Kind of weird to say, but that looks like a fun job.

Been using Zaino Brothers for over ten years. Easy on and off, lasts a long time and after you get a couple of coats on your car will look incredible.

I have used both the hard wax and the insulator. From my understanding, both are equally effective but the hard wax last for a longer period of time. However, the hard wax is more difficult to apply. I read somewhere that if you want it to last extra long, you could apply insulator and then the hard wax. Both work awesome though. Hope this helps.
