Are the pinnacle products worth the money

Mirror Images · 07-10-05, 10:32

I was thinking about getting 2 of the signature paste and 1 of the souvgern paste. That will be 140 bucks...ouch. Are their products worth the money. I use Zaino, poorboys, megs, and clearkote which are all excellent products and relatively inexpensive. I have never used pinnacle, only heard good things. Thanks for the advice.

Some say that there is nothing like Souveran, but I have heard that Clearkotes Carnuma Moose Wax is very very close at a lot less money.

I have also read that Souveran is not worth it on light colors. I would try some s100 or P21s before I spent $70 on Souveran my money says you really wont be able to tell much of a difference.

Souveran is definetly worth the money to me, I buy it for 50 bucks a tin, and I usually get around 40 applications per tin. At ~40 cents per app more than most waxes, its money well spent for me.

Signature, not so much. Natty's is just as good and cheaper.

If you don't want spend that kind of money for Souveran, a local alternative, if you have a good Harley Davidson dealer near you, is S100 wax.

If you are looking for that extra 5% on black or red, then Souveran is worth the money.

Try the Signature on your Redfire metallic...you'll be very pleased.

I would not really say it is worth it unless you have a black car and don't mind the lack of durability. To me, Souveran only looks better than others on black. The durability is not so great either, but I guess it is more of a beauty wax than anything else. I was not very impressed with Paste Glaz (discontinued though) and I still have a full jar of Signature to try out. If I don't like it, it will be up for sale.

Pinnacle products are great.....They're worth it to me.

You might want to check out the "trading thread" and barter someone for a sample of each before leaping in on a full purchase. I would send you some but I sold my Souveran.

Pinnacle Souveran - good product but did not meet "my" needs for my black or red vehicles. Love the smell.

Pinnacle is awesome on red and blacks. Since I have both color cars its my "go to" carnuaba.

Excellent idea! I will remember the next time.

I bit the bullet and got the signature series and the S100.

They are great products, but the final decision on value rests with each consumer. I used to swear by them, and now I use other stuff. I should use the Souveran, though; I have like 3 jars of it still.
