Griot's Garage Polish & Wax

Late last week, I received Griot's clay, machine polish #3, "best of show" wax, and orbital buffer. Cost was around $300 for everything and I wanted to pass along that I'm extremely pleased with the results. I have an '01 Carbon Blk and after using this system(?) I can honestly say the car has never looked better!

I had a few minor scratches and a rub mark on the hood from the Colgan bra that I used at VIR a few weeks ago. The polish cleared both blemishes completely and the resulting wax just looks great! Dust doesn't seem to collect on the car nearly as bad as before and it is staying cleaner longer (a couple of days versus a couple of hours).

Just wanted to pass this experience along in case anyone was looking for this sort of info.

I never used Griots. But I use Zaino and I am very pleased. And it is much cheaper.
