Differences between Swissvax concorso and saphir?

LanceM · 11-13-07, 09:48

I've been seeing post about swissvax on forums and am looking for some differences between the two. Obviously, concorso contains more carnuba and is more expensive.

Which would be the best to go with oon a black car? Most of my familys cars are black.

Honestly, if you want the black to look really nice and not spend the ~$225+ on Concorso; then I'd go with Souveran. I only bought concorso because I do more cars other than family cars. But, I do believe souveran will make that black really look damn good. Also, Autogeek has it on sale for $60.

I can't justify spending ~$200+ on family cars. My family cars get 845/476/Zaino.

Trust me, Souveran looks really good on black. Search the Click N' Brags and you will be pleasantly surprised.

Well, I just did a few coats of souveran and it does look amazing. I think I am just impulsive and was very impressed with the sheeting that and shine of the swissvax.

The differences are subtle.The Concorso will offer more durability over Saphir,along with increased clarity/distinction of image.

I agree. I also agree with Stiffdogg that unless you're just curious, it's probably not worth moving almost horizontally from Souveran to Saphir. I'd go up to Concorso if you get a lark.

QFT??? quit f-ing talking?

But to go with my previous statement. If you do want to go with swissvax, i'd also choose concorso.

I recently bought some Saphir from a member here. I liked it so much that I decided to step to Concourso. I'm expecting delivery tomorrow.

So far, IME Swissvax is the closest thing to Zymol I've used. It sheets water the same way and has very similar depth and reflectivity. Also, Swissvax seems to impart a little bit of a "brighter" shine, slightly smoother finish, and seems to be a little more durable.

I wouldn't be totally surprised if the rest of my Zymol ended up in the Trading Post section here. I'm almost out of Vintage anyway.

I'll try some zymol. Any way I could get some saphir or concorso from you. Maybe we could split it or something.
