P21s/s100

Has anyone here tried P21S? It is also sold as S100 at Harley shops (and much cheaper). I've heard nothing but great things about it so I'm going to give it a try. Its a carnuba so I plan on refreshing my Zaino with a layer or 2 of Z2 before applying the S100. Maybe it will help with the micro scratches I get with the Zaino

I use S100 and love it. I first used it as a Zaino topper, but now I use it exclusively in the summer. I also like the Shine Enhancing Cleaner.

Don't know if it will help with your microscratches, but it's an excellent wax. Can't say how it will look over Zaino, as I usuaally use either the gloss enhancing paint cleanser (the one APT mentioned) or Meguiar's hand polish. Two light coats of p21S/S100 wax over either (applied one or two weeks apart) can look amazing. Application is also a snap.

P21S/S100 is considered by many pro's to be the finest carnauba on the market. I use it, and recommended it to many others who feel the same way. Easy on, easy off, no staining, and a super wet look. However, it's one short coming is its durability. Still, if you don't mind waxing once a month or so, you can't beat P21S!

That's why I was thinking it would work great as a "topper" on the Zaino. Even if I didn't have time to re-wax every month, the Zaino would still be there to protect the paint and maintain a decent look until I could reapply the S100. Carnuba fades pretty fast down here in Tampa (can melt off in less than a month) so I wouldn't want to rely on just the carnuba. I'm particularly intrigued by the statements that the S100 will not leave the white marks on the black trim. I'm pretty careful when waxing, but with a dark blue truck with black/grey trim, any white marks really jump out at you.

It is like Zaino Z2, no trim stains. Z5 does, but not Z2. You will love S100/P21S on dark blue. I did not think anything would look better than Z5 on my Deep Wedgewood Blue. I was wrong.

Well, I put the S100 on this weekend and it looks great. It has a bit of a deeper look than the Zaino to it. Gotta tell ya though, I still think I like the shine of Zaino better. Oh, on a side note, it does seem to help with the micro scratches.

Not that my opinion counts but it's probably the best wax I've ever used.
