Wanted to put a plug in for Turbo Wax. Have used it a few times now and can say that I really love it. To be fair, I have never tried Zaino; however, I just don't have the time. All the products that Juan offers are great. I also really like the microfiber towels. Before switching over, I was using tropic-care products. Turbo-Wax is so much better.

Also bought a bunch of Turbo Wax products. Love the polishing pads - way beyond the ones I got elsewhere. The honeycomb design works super.

Swirl remover polish is the best I've used. I keep going back between Griots machine polish and swirl remover, but in the end, TurboWax lays down smoother, has a longer working time.

Agree that Tito has fabulous customer service.

Hello Guys! I received a fair amount of emails from some of you encouraging me to stop by the forum, so I’m stopping by to Thank you all for opening your doors to me, it means a lot to me; recently I had one of the funniest incidents EVER! I got a call from a very nice and polite Lady not long ago;

“Can I speak with Juan?”, she asked over the phone, she introduced herself and went on to explain that her Husband was not detailing her viper correctly, I can clearly hear her telling her Husband to STOP, that she will tell him how to do this detail job and that was her car! It was the funniest thing ever, the very next day the Husband calls to thank me and we shared a good laugh about the incident. Those are precious moments!!



On another matter I got my hands on the “Cousin” of the Viper, some refer to them as a “Pick up truck” anyways allow me to share some photos without compromising our friendly visit

After the evaluation of the vehicle I decided to start by doing the wheel wells, to accomplish this task the wheels of the vehicle were removed.

was a Meguiars, Mothers, Autoglym user but after using Juan's stuff i'm sticking to it. Easy on, easy off, and fast email responses and tips have made my household a TURBOWAX diehardt.
Will post pics once the girlfriend sends me the compressed files.

Thank you Dave! I wish that ANY wax could do that type of magic :rolaugh: that was done with a Porter Cable XP, yellow, orange, white and black foam pads along with the needed products, total time was around 7.5 to 8 hours, I was a tired puppy and right after I was done this client showed up, this was all done by hand for the love of it :omg::dunno:

Tito, looks awesome, what polishing compounds did you use and in what order. Wouldn't that be nice if there were something out there to do that kind of all-in-one magic?

I be the first one to buy it!! Like anything else in the marketplace,there are products out there that seek their own level of justification some work others don't, so far I don't think that there's any way around it, Patience and Time are two key elements :headbang:
