Meguire's gold class liquid here. It puts an absolutely deep shiney finish on my black bird. Look at the showroom under Kevin Vines, and you'll see. I've not used anything else since the first time I used it about 4 years ago.

What Pete said. I discovered Liquid Glass a lot of years ago and have been using it ever since. You can use it not only on the paint but on your plastic and glass.

Same here. Great products and they not only shine the car but are excellent for paint care.

Well I was going to order some zainos. Alot of people have been suggesting Meguires to me outside of this board. I was getting ready to do the car today for a Fathers Day car Show and I bought the Meguires 3 Step Set. It is called Deep Crystal System. 3 Seperate bottles that are around $6 each. 1 Cleaner, 2 Polish, 3 Carnuba Wax. For compatability I also got some of their quick detailer. I also decided to try an orbital since I never have. I used the trusty arm for the polishing stage so I could really get in there. I did the first fender and couldnt belive the diffrence. There was acctually 2 diffrent shades of blue from the fender to the door. (Picture didnt turn out). After that was done it looked like a whole new paint job. Next was the polish. Used the orbital for application and a clean towel for removal. It absolutely gleamed. The only sucky part about the first 2 stages is that you cannot let them dry. Yes I was in the shade but it was a 104 Degress today. In the desert at that temp things dry kinda fast. Then I went onto the wax. Used the orbital for application and removal. It is dark now but I have never seen it shine like this ever. I took it to the local mini mart to get some stuff and in the lights it was amazing. It took me about 4 hours to do. But completly worth it. I will post pics tomarrow from the car show. Also I got to install my NATO 1/4 decals today.

I don't worry about the shine. I let the dirt hide it for me.
