My jar of Souveran is almost empty and I`m trying to decide whether I should buy another one or try something else (only interested in a paste carnauba). I am sure I`m probably the only one that feels this way, but I actually can`t stand the way Souveran smells. To me it is really overly sweet and nauseating. I`m after the wettest look possible and appreciate ease of use. I wax every four weeks, so I`m not that concerned with durability. How would FK1 Pink compare? How about Natty`s Blue? The wax will primarily be used on a red Porsche and a Silver Lexis. The Porsche is the priority though. Many thanks!

Have you used S100 or Trade Secret?

Nope. The only carnauba paste wax I`ve used is Souveran.

If you have a Harley Davidson dealer nearby, give S100 (P21s) a try. It`s a very quality wax and only $15.

Since you mentioned it, I love my Natty`s Blue, smells great and looks very deep and wet even on white.

I agree with the S100 and Natty`s Blue recommendations. Natty`s Blue is awesome on my dark blue metallic, and the Pinnacle Signature Series II is a very close match to Souveran.



For the money, I`d go with Natty`s Blue or S100.

Try the Nattys Blue for sure, its a must have. I have also been liking Max Wax. Wanna try Trade Secret myself as soon as I can.

Among other things, I like P21S (S100). Here`s what it looks like on Porsche Guard`s Red

I would respectfully suggest that you try Meguiar`s #26 high tech yellow wax. There are some/many who say that it is as good as Souverign, and the price is right -- about $12-13 for paste. If you like it, then you`ve found yourself a bargain. And if you don`t, you can always trade.

I like virtually every suggestion listed in this thread but I like Souveran better. :bigups

Honestly, I just don`t think I can stand the smell anymore.

I definitely like Souveran on black/red, but can`t tell the difference on most other colors. Nattys Blue is a great reco, as is S100/P21S. Clearkote carnauba might be worth checking out too; very deep glow over RMG or VM.
