Thumbs up Springtime + Claybar + BlackFire + TXSTYLE =

Things that go B L I N G!

I have long been (and still am) a Meguiars man.
But........ My boy Ricky (DaKineZ) turned me on to BLACKFIRE 2-stage Wax & Polish, so I decided today to apply it after my once-a-year ClayBar (Springtime) and I am IMPRESSED to say the least!
Easy to apply and remove, and simply S L I C K & S H I N Y as can be.

Now then....... Where's my sunglasses?

I will no doubt, stick with Meguiars in some form or fasion. But I'm always open to suggestions from people who know their stuff. I am also interested in a new product from Eagle 1: NanoWax



The first polish and wax utilizing advanced Nano technology to fill fine scratches and conceal swirl marks.


NanoWax is our most technologically advanced wax created using Nano technology. This formula is better at filling fine scratches and concealing swirl marks than traditional waxes. It also provides an amazing shine and leaves no wax residue behind. We believe NanoWax is the best performing high gloss wax formula on the market today. It’s an easier way to protect your car with a long lasting wax and high gloss shine.

Easy to remove, no white residue
Conceals minor scratches and swirl marks
Comes in convenient pump bottle for control and ease-of-use
Smoother coating minimizes smearing after polishing


In pack bonus:
Every bottle of NanoWax includes a free non-abrasive microfiber polishing cloth and foam applicator. Ultra-fine micro fibers actually lift and remove excess wax resulting in a streak-free, glossy shine.

Thanks! 20% and a small 5% strip up front. People ALWAYS think I have darker tint when they see it.
LOL! I don't know, it does at times look to be painted black.

Let me ask my friend who lent it to me. I've never seen it at stores, so I'm guessing he ordered it.

I found out the BlackFire can be ordered from www.properautocare.com

The Nanowax from Eagle 1 is pretty new, so I would check with your local Parts Store.
