I really wanted to like the Tech Wax. Bought some a few years ago. Had a great deep gloss shine and smooth as glass feel. But after a few washings the shine faded and the paint was back to feeling not so smooth. That is why I continue to use Zaino. I detail it twice a year with a few quick coats in between and it always has a deep shine and smooth feel.

All I've had is black bikes,I don't buy into any of the SuperWax theories....
Every so often I hit the paint and chrome with Maguire's Scratch X to take out the flaws etc. that naturally happen to bikes on the road.Other then that after debugging the Batwing after rides with plain water.... I use some 7 bucks a can spray cleaner/polish on the fairing including the windshield and anywhere else on the bike that needs a shot...
The spray stuff I use even works better on the windshield than the Novus products Clearview recomends.
I asked a guy who detailed my bike after I had some work done on it how the hell he got it looking so good....he showed me a can of this:

Yep, I've used allot of "product" over the years on show cars and trucks. Started using Maguires NXT on my Hayabusa when it first came out, and now my Street Glide. It's definitely the best "automotive product" I've tried. My Vivid Black Street Glide looks as good if not better than the day it came off the showroom (no swirls!) after a 6000 miles worth of Alaska riding. Thats saying quite a bit. Have not tried the "Pledge" yet... just seems wrong! Although I am intrigued.

As embarrased as I am to admit it, I used a Honda product I picked up at a local power-shop. I went into buy a can of Plexus & found this Honda product....Cleaner\polish. Seems to work pretty well. I'll see how the longevity of this product lasts but the cleaning & polishing of this stuff works great! Btw, $7 a can.
