Which polish are you using on your car?
I'm using Finish First Polish...

I'll recommend it to anyone who wants a fantastic shine... It's the best polish I've tried...

I use Meguiar's product for all my cars and my dad's cars. I am really happy with the result.
Before using Meguiar I've tried turtle wax and KIT but the result is not as good as I expect. Yes, I've heard Zaino and in fact, couple of my friends use it but I dont know why I still prefer Meguiars.

this is my combo. Goes on easy comes off easy. Have you tried the extra gloss protection as a final coat.
Its now good value as the price has dropped. Asda now stock the super resin (not the extra gloss). They also stock polishing cloths not the Auto Glym brand, but they are similar.

Now they may not meet your definition of a polish (I'm assuming a polish to you means it has to be abrasive?), but it does meet the webster's dictionary definition of a polish "A substance containing chemical agents or abrasive particles and applied to smooth or shine a surface". Other companies such as Maguires sell non-abrasive polishes as well.
So who's right?
Pretty much anything beats Turtle wax though....

"No contest as Zanio is not a polish" by TOWGT
Actually, zaino refers to their products as a POLISH.
I have used it for the last few years on everything. Works great, easy application and lasts longer than any other product that I have used in the last 35 years.
I have a '96 vette that is just south of 100k miles and has original paint. I picked up first place trophies in the only two car shows I entered last year.
You may try it. I think you will be pleased. Last order I got the accelerator for the polish. It helped the drying time and longevity of the finish.

I just recieved the Finish First Auto Polish products and I gotta say ... it is so far the best that I have used. Goes on easy and looks beautiful ,leaves a really silky smooth finish without really having to use any elbow grease.
Very impressed.
