ICE is caca... jus really easy 2 use cuz it comes off even with the sun on it... the meguires NXT stuff or high tech yellow wax is prolly some of the best easily available off the shelf product... believe me I sell it for a living lol

I was using it before I switched to Zaino. It would only last me about 2 weeks and I'd find myself having to reapply. Looked GREAT when it was fresh though, just couldn't last at all. -------------------- |

For black cars, nothing beats Meguier's. I use all their products. The only
thing I don't like of their's are the Interior Wipes. They don't give the interior a good enough shine. I want to try the Ice before the summer is up and see what it looks like. How does the Ice interior stuff look? Anyone got a pic?

Since I have swirls and such, I was planning on using some rubbing compound on my car, then going over it with a nice coat of wax. Is this the correct way of doing it? I know rubbing compound removes swirls and oxidation.

u should always go from least abrasive to most abrasive.
start off with a polish and if it isn't good enough, use a stronger polish also u can change up the type of pad u use (finishing/lite,med,heavy cutting/etc) -------------------- |
