You can add it to the list.

As a side note, Torque Detail gives an exceptional shine. I snapped this pic after I used it the first time.

" including gimmicky ones like Nu Finish."

Oh please. It does what it says and has been around for 45 or so years. No "gimmick" involved.

From the link provided above:
BITOG Wax Recommendations:

" 3: Nu Finish. Why this works: Cost-effective way to get a good shine, widely available."

But there are rows of gimmicky new ones out there at the local Pep Boys, Auto Zone, WalMart or available online.
