Re: Wolfgang Fusion or Pinnacle Souveran?

Someone (I can't remember which poster) did a comparison and his view was that Souveran looks a little bit better but Fuzion last much longer. I am curious if others will agree.

Re: Wolfgang Fusion or Pinnacle Souveran?

They're completely different looks.

Souveran imo is better suited to darker colors. It gives a deeper carnauba look with a lot of jetting while fuzion looks good on all colors. Its more of a synthetic bright, wet, and reflective look

Re: Wolfgang Fusion or Pinnacle Souveran?

I have both, and have used both on my own cars quite a bit.

The difference in looks is subtle and it's definitely a matter of personal preference. That is, *IF* you can even see the difference.

Fuzion definitely lasts longer. No doubt about that.

In my opinion Souveran is just a *little* bit easier to use. It seems to spread and wipe off easier than Fuzion, but honestly, not by much.

When my souveran is gone, I don't plan on replacing it. Fuzion and Wolfgang Spritz Sealant is my current LSP combo of choice.

might have been me as that is what I posted in another thread a while back

souveran lasts about 3/4 washes, fuzion longer - more like 8-10
souveran looks deeper, Fuzion looks more reflective

if you are the type to wax every couple of weeks with a nuba, grab some souveran. If you value protection, then grab some Fuzion. In the same time, you will end up spending the same $ amount on the waxes as you will use more souveran, but with it being about 1/2 the price, using twice as often, it comes out the same, your arms will just see more use!

Re: Wolfgang Fusion or Pinnacle Souveran?

On my black S2K, I think I saw, though not initially but a day or two later, an infinitesimal difference between the two. Both look great on my car. Both are incredibly easy to apply and remove. I love both. I think Souveran has a subtle glow about it that Fuzion lacks. I think. It may be all my imagination. At the moment Souveran is my favorite for my black car. I like it better than Swissvax Best of Show, though I need to give the latter another opportunity or two to impress.

Re: Wolfgang Fusion or Pinnacle Souveran?

Alright, I took the plunge

Just bought my first Pinnacle Souveran at one of the online retailers on here - it was 15% off + free shipping - so it wound up being $80 instead of $100 everywhere else!

Thank you VERY much for everyones input - I LOVE this site!

Now on a black non-metallic car, would you want a reflective look or a dark look?

Re: Wolfgang Fusion or Pinnacle Souveran?

For me, I am looking for a dark, deep, wet, glossy look - the kind that looks like you have a sheet of water all over it, and not that bright reflective look where you have to wear sunglasses to even look at your car.

Re: Wolfgang Fusion or Pinnacle Souveran?

I guess the pick would be Pinnacle Souveran as always.
