S100. You can find it at local Harley-Davidson dealers, or online. I think it costs $20, but it has an extremely glossy shine like P21S, actually I think its basically the same stuff.

Local Harley dealers or on-line. It's only $15, though. The best 'inexpensive' wax there is, bar none. Very easy on/off too.

Agreed on the S100, wonderful stuff. Also if your not worried about the durability look at the liquid Souveran, it is considerably cheaper and looks very wet and deep for a liquid wax, my local Honda dealer sells it for some reason, about 20$ a bottle. I would be curious to know if anyone elses local Honda dealers sell Pinnacle products also.

If you want the gloss of S100 but want better durability, look at Colinite #745. Stuff is like $20-25 a bottle, and is easy to apply like S100. Lasts literally almost 4-5 months with a good coat.

Where did you get that? It must be a sealant unlike these others right?

Seems too good to be true....a wax (caranuba, I'm assuming) that lasts that long. I'll have to look for that in my area.

Yeah, seems like a long time for a wax.

I was thinking it was too good to be true when the guy at the store told me about it, then I tried it out and the stuff lasts a LONG time. It was still beading water after 4 months when I tested it out last spring. Put it on over a month ago and its still beading like crazy. Stuff really works, trust me.

Sealants are better than waxes for protection.....and polymer sealants are better for both. However, they are less durable than acrylic sealants...so

Durability: Acrylic Sealant (klasse)

Looks: Carnuba wax (p21s/s100, souveran)

More durable than wax, less than acrylic and still retains the looks of carnuba wax: Polymer sealant (poorboys, blackfire)
