Now that my airplane will finally wear real paint (Imron), I'll need to re-learn the same rituals that the rest of ya'll follows... wiping off the bugs and dew, etc. Waxing now and then.
Has anyone tried any of the new "NanoWaxes", or micro-particulate polishes?

Craig-
I've been using for awhile now a product called Buffalo Milke which is a spray on wipe off nano wax. It's easy to use and love the results. It's also a great in between washes cleaner. http://www.buffalomilke.com/
Also Simple Green airplane cleaner is great for getting the oil off your belly. Just spray it on, let sit for a minute then hose it off. The oil just rinses away almost zero wiping.

Sad to say, I'm not please with Buffalo Wax on my plane. Leaves very noticeable streaks on my black paint [quote][b]

If I wanted to do as you suggest, Lt. Anal, I'd see if I could still buy (you're too young to remember) Simonize paste wax somewhere. And by the way, a dirty cloth has never touched my plane. Brother By.

Sir Demon of Speed,
Racer's Edge Aircraft Polish is slick as snot, easy to apply, and only needs to be applied about once a year if the plane is hangared. Works well enough for many of the racers at Reno....
So when do we get to see the gal all dolled up and ready for the dance?
Cheers,
Barry

Another simple to use product is Bike Clean by Turtle Wax. Works on bugs and grease. Spray it on and wipe it off. That fast.

Having just returned from Reno for the Races where I had occasion to work with the first and second place winners of Unlimited Gold and Silver races, I can tell all with some authority that the Aero Glaze product is a superior method of both cleaning and waxing a painted surface. Aero Glaze is awesome stuff.
As well, there was some excitement at the Races we all should make note of. Stu Eberhart’s P-51 blew-up. No, I am not referring to the motor he smoked, but the oxygen bottle he over charged. He apparently had a low pressure system, he pressurized to 1800 psi. Bang! Words to the wise: Pressure check your pneumatic system. If it lets go in flight, your airplane will come apart and that will be bad. Just ask Stu Eberhart what he thinks about it.
Regards,
BHM
