I know Anthony Orosco was using it on high-end sports cars and was happy with it. I would definitely go from his recommendation.
Besides that, I use P21S - it works great and is about $5 cheaper if I remember correctly.

yeah i got the p21s i like that product alot, it alsmot like smearing oil on your paint it has that consistency

does anyone let it haze/dry or do they just apply and wipe right off like in 15 seconds or so?

frankie,

I believe the Trade Secret is very similar to the Pinnacle Paste Glaze. As a matter of a fact, they may be identical products! I haven`t tried either, so I can`t speak personally about their performance. However, as stated, Anthony has great luck with the TS, and that`s a very high recommendation. I have used the Souveran which is a pure carnauba, and has it`s own look somewhat different than P21S. It`s a bit "richer" and "deeper" than the P21S, but not as wet and reflective.

You can`t tell the difference between Paste Glaze and Trade Secret just by your nose. I tested them tonight and they smell the same. The secret of Trade Secret is that they make it out of squashed Smurfs. Shhhhhh....!
