Horrible! Most of the major swirls come from the body shop that decided to wash my car after they installed a new windshield... :roll:

The long scratch is from sliding off the driveway and running thru the apple tree branch(s) along side of the driveway.

Process was Menzerna IP with yellow edge pad on rotary @ 1400 RPM's
Menzerna FP green pads on cyclo. Shining monkey hand glaze topped with Souveran paste...the pictures are after using FP.

How do you compare it to Trade Secret?

very similiar but not exactly the same. On/off they both are a dream.

If I did not have the $70 for souveran Trade Secret would be the wax that I buy. Trade secret seems to be a LITTLE more reflective than "wet". to the majority of people out there the difference is not worth the extra $30, it is to me though.
