Has anybody else out there tried it?
Do you haveta rub it on and then rub it off? That's what I object to about waxing. I mean, why rub something on if you're only gonna rub it off.

Oh boy. I knew the next item up for discussion would be the "once a year" car polishes. Please don't get started on this.

Hey Frank,
Have we already discussed these once-a-year car polishs? I probably missed it, if so...

How 'bout once a decade car waxes? Once a lustrum?

Try doing a search for "zaino". Many threads by the "zaino zealots" about these things. Probably at least 3 per year for the last 4 years!
