After using Show Sheen (Absorbine) for years, I bought a bottle of Vetrolin shine (it was on sale!) I really was surprised by how much better it was. It added the same amount of "sheen" as Show Sheen, but wasn't quite as slippery. Also, aside from costing $4.00 less (per quart) than Show Sheen,it contains sunscreen (though unfortunatley PABA) and keeps some of the bugs away (it has a liniment smell), so you don't need as much flyspray. I highly reccomend it!
