So, I decided to try out Swissvax Concorso from reading on here, MikeyC`s pist and S2ki. I did some paint correction about a month ago, so I didnt use the UDM.



The cleaner fluid, IMO is kind of a pain to use. Its kind of hard to apply, I guess sticky is the word to use here. However, the bottle says apply till sticky. I just thought it was odd. But, after buffing it off it left the paint looking real good.



The wax. I applied the wax by hand. I followed the direction by applying the wax on the paint by fingertips. I tried a applicator pad, but it didnt really work. The wax really needs to warm to be able to be applied.



I believe this wax really is great. The shine is ridiculous. Probably the most reflective I`ve seen. I really wish I would have used this when I did my full detail, because it is VERY reflective and shiny. Due to its intense shine, you can see some of the scratches, contaminants on the paint. I really should`ve clay bar`d. I really dont think it gets any better than this. Unless, I try some Mystery, Divine or Vintage.



The pics dont do the wax any justice. Looks much better in person.

I cant wait to see how it looks after a few more hours. Supposedly, the wax becomes deeper from curing in the sun.

Looks good, maybe hit the rear wheel wells too, can`t really tell on the fronts, but the rears look like they could use some dressing.

lol i never waxed my wheels before and I have a car meet tomorrow. So, I just grabbed the souveran for ***** and giggles. I`m deciding on what sealant/wax I want to use on them in the future.

Use some tire foam in the wheel wells, works great and you don`t need to reach in there.



The paint looks awesome, I am a huge fan of Concorso. With cleaner fluid, I actually just apply with a foam towel then remove right away; I find it much easier than HD cleanse. A nice sub for both is Pinnacle Paintwork Cleanser.

does concorso sheet water like crazy. i`ve seen some videos on youtube showing the sheeting action of some zymols. i think that`s cool as hell, would assume it would aid in keeping the car cleaner during normal driving. atleast that my be my justification to spending the $$ to get those products.:LOLOL
