Just wondering about the one's that were not tested. Excellent products like
Dri-Wash & Guard and Amsoil's equivalent don't use water and give a superior
shine to any of these products, yet were not tested! With the coming water
rationing here in the Dallas, Tx area as well as many other areas around the
country, it makes me kind of wonder why the best products were ignored.
These products allow you to care for your vehicles without the use of water,
an important environmental concern, yet they were ignored by a supposedly
concerned and independent source like Consumer Reports?
   Just wondering....

Don't know if any of you see "Consumer Reports", but they rated waxes and
polishes in the latest issue (May).  I was surprised by some of the results.
- Zymol - Cleaner Wax was top rated...but it's $16 per bottle
- Prestone Bullet Wax was a close 2nd....and about $7 per bottle
- Nu Finish Paste Wax was 3rd
- Armor All Car Wax...4th
- 3M One Step Cleaner Wax ....5th

All five of these rated very close to each other.  Looks like the
determining factor (at least for me) is price.  I have been using Meguiar's
Cleaner Wax (liquid), but it rated in the bottom third.  Meguiar's Cleaner
Wax paste was dead last.
