Should I Add Trade Secret?

My current Caranuba collection includes:

-Nattys Blue
-P21S
-FK Pink Wax
-Meguiars Gold Class ( )

Would it be worth it to add Trade Secret to my collection?

The price tag is a bit high at $36, especially when people dont rave about it near as much as Souveran, which in turn is often compared to S100/P21S.

Just looking for some opinions and maybe a "oh, you have to add it" or "no, its really not worth it" type of comments.

Thanks in advance.

I love TS...I consider it the poor man's Souveran. If AG didn't have their 2 for 1 sales on Souveran, TS would probably be my exclusive "goto" wax for reds and blacks. But, since I have a few jars of each, they share that duty.

I like Trade Secret. One of my faves.
I'll also say it's different to the carnaubas you already have. So if you're looking for something new and with its own look, then TS should be on the list.

TS is my special wax;looks wet,smells good, doesn't stain trim, easy on easy off. I love it more than Natty white,S100,#16 ... buy it

If you are a carnauba guy, then go for it.


I used to use a lot of waxes, now I only really touch one or two; Nattys Blue or Pink Wax.


Trade Secret looks good, but durability is pretty crappy. I think Natty's Blue or PW is a nice compromise for durability/looks.

TS is by far my favorite! Pink is to solvent smelly, Natty's not as easy to use. Also I dont use the toppers for durability, mostly for short term killer wetness! So if you need another one to the collection I would go for it!!!! sorry for the rant, I love this stuff!
