Quoted from LTG:

I'd skip the naptha ( lighter fluid ) and go with Novus 1 first.
Then a good hard carnauba wax like this : One or two coats.

You can find it at auto parts stores.
LTG : )

I agree. Novus 1 is probably the only cleaner you need then Carnuba wax. Nocus 2 and 3 start getting abrasive.

Quoted from vid1900:

Everything sucks now.
Ronsonol - changed their formula
Simple Green - changed to weaker formula
Bix - is now the worst paint stripper, you used to scrape it all up and put it back in the can for reuse.
Maker's Mark - watered down their whiskey (although after much outcry, have restored it to 90 proof) [quoted image]

You left out Lava Lamp.

jvivlemore don't try flame polish on a nice ramp like that before practicing on junk ramps. You'll likely ruin it. I have used Nova 3, then 2, then 1 on the plastics with good results, but never really worried about bringing back to factory finish.
