Carnaubavore is my sh*t now! Goes on easy, comes off easy, and lasts a ridiculously long time. I can get 2 or 3 months and it still looks like it was just applied. 4 or 5 months and I'm still beading.
About time for pollen to let up and get my spring cleaning in myself.

It's $70 for a pot which isn't bad for a hand made wax with that kind of carnauba content in it. Not to mention a single pot will last an individual years if applied properly. It ships from VA. The last pic in the image carousel on the front page is my hood after applying. Speaks for itself pretty well.

The Surf City Garage stuff is great. I have been using it for about 3 months and love it so far.
I have a long list of the enthusiast grade stuff and am looking forward to the pro series.
Hot Rod and Speed Demon are my go to QD's now. Dashaway and Voodoo Blend for the interior and leather. Black Max (I think that's the name) tire dressing. The Barrier Reef liquid wax is awesome..BUT..if you get the spray Barrier Reef DO NOT just spray it on the car. The sprayer on the bottle isn't real controllable. You will have it all over all of the black trim...don't even ask how I know about that. Spray it on a rag first.
The Black Edge detailer is awesome. I have a black GT/CS and was at a show a couple of weeks ago. The car had been sitting in direct sun for several hours and we all know what happens when you spray any QD on a black car..it steams for a few seconds and streaks like crazy.The Black Edge DID NOT STREAK! I was really surprised.
I don't use a "colored" wax. I don't use anything that just fills in scratches and swirls, that's why I have a Porter Cable 7424 DA polisher. I have spent several hours on the black car doing paint correction; Just my opinion on that one.
If you can get it, try it. All of the SCG products I have used have been great.
