lol good one I gotta admit that kind of money for something I dont know if I will like is hard to swallow. IF or when i get a sample then I can make my decision until then we will have to see.

Alright well how about what do the people that can spend $2k on wine do for a living? Imagine how much each sip costs, wow!

ect... well here is apic of my product collection at this point

Are you going to place it in it's own backlit display case? Surely, you aren't going to just place it among the "common" waxes, right?

HA, I kid. Hope you enjoy it!

The suggestion about closing your PM box out of concern for being inundated might be well taken. lol

Although, you do get free refills...hmmm

Looking forward to the pics!

Maybe get a safe deposit box at the bank?

Imagine the looks you'll get when you say, "I have to stop of at the bank...I'm waxing my car today."

im sure if they found out i spent so much on wax they would think im crazy, going to the bank to pick it up would be icing on the cake

calgarydetail- Been out with the dogs, so I'm late to this party..congrats on the Vintage purchase, I'll be looking forward to your report on it.

Last night I told Accumulatorette how the hot topic was a $1800 wax with free refills, and the only thing she wondered about what why I'd need refills since I use so little LSP. Sorta surprised me that spending $2K on a wax sounded reasonable to her

I have to say you use far more wax by bare hand than you do with an applicator. You would think putting it on by hand would give you a thinner coat, quite the opposite. I have done bare hand wax application many times, and I do use it still with some waxes as they seem to work better that way however you absolutely do use more product.

So IMO for a bare hand applied wax the refills are gonna save you.

You know, I hadn't thought of that. You're right. Since you'll be essentially washing away some of that wax when you clean your hands (or rubbing it off on a towel) there's always going to be some wax you'll end up taking out of the jar, but never making it to the car.
