FINALLY! After finishing my daily stack of TPS reports, Nick showed me where all of the new Pinnacle products are stored in the warehouse. With my new (to me) YZF600R as my daily driver, I've been using gallons of Waterless Wash and Quick Detailer products. So I knew the first product I wanted to try was Pinnacle's Liquid Crystal Waterless Wash w/ Carnauba.

I figured this would be a perfect opportunity to try the new Limited Edition Pumpkin Microfiber Towels.

Double sided for versatility.

Here's the bike before, still looking good after a complete detail 13 days ago even after daily Florida showers. This picture was taken in the evening so I was in a hurry to have daylight. Every morning I wipe the bike down with a QD to remove morning dew while the bike warms up. That morning I used WG Instant Detail Spritz.

As soon as I pulled the trigger for the first time, one thing came to mind....CANDY. This stuff smells soooooooooooooo good!!! I've seen everyone mention the smell in their own reviews, but I'd like to emphasize how good this smells!

Bigbull2984 mentioned in his review how this product doesn't run like other WW's, and he wasn't lying! Keep in mind my bike still has a coat of WG Deep Gloss Liquid Seal and Fuzion, so if this product would run on any paint it would be mine.

The Pumpkin MF towel worked perfectly. For most of the panels I used the plush side, but for the lower fairings I used the Flat Weave side. With the cleaning ability of Liquid Crystal, it made wiping away chain grease and road grime a breeze.
At this point, the bike looks and smells amazing. That's right....smells amazing. :xyxthumbs:

When I was finished, I drove to a friends house and the first thing she noticed wasn't my new gloves or t-shirt. It was the sweet smell my bike was emitting! Throughout the night my bike turned heads. I even received two compliments this morning at a gas station. The gloss that Liquid Crystal Waterless Wash left behind was amazing. This will easily replace two products in my detailing bag. Im the MAN
