A freind of mine told me to use Future floor polish for a nice shine on my cars. He's never tried it though. Ive also read about it in a few topics on the forum. So how do it use it? Just brush it on and leave it or do I have to buff it out. If I use it in an airbrush (my first airbrush is in the mail, very excited), do I have to thin it out? He said it supposedly makes clear parts look more like glass, is this true? I wanna know all about this. Ive tried everthing to get a good shine, and Im just never very happy.

Well, that looks good. Youve just left me with one more question. Where can I find it? I looked in three stores today with no luck. I did find pledge (i think) with "future power", but I dont think I want my models smelling pine fresh.

I found mine in Target in the floor cleaner section.

You know, Will, I had trouble finding Future too...tried all of the usual spots...K-Mart,

Target, Wal-Mart, etc. But where I'm sure that you'll find it is at any well stocked Ace

Harware store (that's where I finally found some). If there is a larger Ace near you

call them and ask if they have Future. After I found some, I saw it in three other Ace

stores. By the way, that Pledge, with 'Future-Power' is NOT the same stuff.

Hope that helps.. Steve

Pledge with Future Shine is the new label for Future. I called the company because I couldn't find Future anywhere eather and they told me it's been changed to Pledge with Future Shine.

I think some people are confusing Pledge with Future power for Wood Floors, which is different.

Pledge with Future Shine is indeed the same old stuff.

Maybe I shoul ick up another bottle or two at My Target. They still have regular Future.

Rest assured people CAL is absolutely right The new stuff smells exactly the same and has the same directions for use, it's made by the same company it is called Pledge with Future Shine (not Power). I found both on the shelf together and the newer stuff looked even clearer, probably because the Future was older.

ACE hardware in my area, but most hardware stores will carry it. Look in the floor cleaning section.
