I have used Liquid Glass with great results. I generally use a cleaner like Mothers then a couple of coats of Liquid Glass and everything is so smooth. Of course I recently got the car painted so it will be a while before I do anything but will probably try the Zaino system.

Have for years and years. There are tons of guys at the car shows I go to who also do this. I use it like a "detailing" touch up. I still apply regular "automotive" wax a few times a year. But the in-between cleaning/detail work is wash, dry, pledge.
Zero residue and with a nice clean microfiber towel, it takes about ten minutes to do the whole car.
Use in on my Harley too.

In my case i wetsanded with 2000 to achieve the wet look but after i had to find the best wax to fit my needs. Because not all wax work good on black car. Some will leave a yellow kinda finish some are hard to remove and some will leave a greassy finish.

The 3.5 grand product is a very limited edition.
Check the site for chaper (but still expensive) stuff...
I'll visit a workshop there in a couple of weeks.. .

On my C3, after I finished the rear valance replacement, I washed the car with their soap and at the same time as washing, I went over the Vette with their clay bar and then rinsed. Once dried, I used their polish (top of the car in horizontal motions and sides in vertical) and holly crap what a shine. Went on easy and off easy as well (I only use 100% 12X12 cotton rags - get them at COSTCO). I think the whole process took 2 hours total.
I am now hooked on this. I threw out ALL my microfiber rags, and all my Meguires products will be phased out.
Bottom line, use what works what is best for you. Try different products and experiment and make your own decison and stick with what works.

I've tried polymer polish/wax products with good results however for me carnauba waxes give a depth of color the polymers can't match....I use Pinnacle Show Car Glaze (no longer available) and Adam's products on my car.
