Just an update on how my polish and wax is holding up. I started this year with Sonus SFX-2 and 3, Sonus SFX Paintwork Cleanser, and followed with a light glaze with Sonus Acrylic Glanz, then topped with Zymol Concours. I have followed up with a few more passes with Concours up to this point...(hope this works!)

So far I believe the wax finish is progressing satisfactorily. I must admit that the new polishes did a phenomenal job of getting the paint in shape before the wax. The result is more clear and sharp as opposed to last year. I am a fan of Zymol`s intensity, but I must say that the polish IMO greatly enhanced the wax`s attributes.
We will see in the fall months how the finish is holding up. Happy Waxing!

Very nice. Ya gotta love the SS. It`s always interesting to me to see the neighborhood backgrounds in photos people post. That looks so radically different from anything I have ever seen, or lived in. I would like to go to New York one day. Looks like an interesting place.

I like looking in the backgrounds of photos as well, and couldn`t help but notice that the guy in the background of this one looks like he`s cleaning his windows in a bio-hazard suit! :D
