souveran != P21S but very close!

P21S = S100 and s100 is much cheaper.

The best bang for your buck on apperance is S100. Durability will be collinite. I have actually gone as far as using megs #7 glaze (always go around the car 2x on the removal step as it never truly dries) then topped that with S100, followed by some collinite for durability and one more coat of S100 for the sheer beauty of it.

FYI, you can get S100 at any harley davidson dealership…

Truth. about $14-$20 depending on the place.

I will write up a huge detailing DIY again since i think that I lost my old one when UBRF went down. With Paul’s permission i will take pictures of some of the work he is doing when he working on my car, and i will make a nice post for everyone that details, thinks they can detail, or has no clue.

in the mean time a great reference is [Ultimate Guide to Detailing – Car Detailing For Enthusiasts!](http://guidetodetailing.com/topics.php?topicId=17)

I created a few things for that site as well as used several things for my own benefit back in the day. I suggest reading up over there, or joining [autopia.org](http://autopia.org), or detailcity for good tips tricks, and even expert opinions, product reviews etc…

holy shit, give the kid some credit, hes just trying to make some money, have you personally seen his work? NO he drives a pos car, how old is he, and how old are you guys?

seriously with the bashing on this kid, its getting old. leave him alone and let him try and make some money, not everyone can be spoiled and have everything handed to them by mommy and daddy.

edit- speedped, dont take my kindness for interest in your work, im a full time detailer myself, im just sick of the bullshit from the asshats who think they are hot shit.
