Picked up some S100 today

[Pats300zx]

After reading some pretty good reviews here on the forum I stopped by a local Harley Davidson dealer and picked up some S100 today for $14.95.



I have been a dedicated Pinnacle Souveran user but am willing to give this a try. I have seen pics of the S100 results and am pretty impressed... Can`t wait to give it a try

:D

I did the same today and the shine is great.



Question I have is this S100 the same product as the P21S Carnauba?

[KCPreki11]

Yes, their the same. S100 is my favorite now, but my only competition is #26. S100 is like butter. Hmm I don`t know what Souvern to S100 will be like?

I just used the S100 Shine Enhancing Cleanser to clean up some water spots. It did a very good job of cleaning up the waterspots and left an incredible shine.

I do and I think S100/P21S looks even better than Souveran. Most of you will recall the pic of the blue Acura TL I posted that I waxed with Souveran. Today it was time to rewax it and I used S100. When the owner came out to look at it, he just stared at it with his mouth half open for about 10 seconds, then simply said "Amazing." He had this goofy grin the whole time.



Yes, I did take pics. I`ve got about 10 left on this role, so I`ll probably have it developed and posted by Monday.

My Maxima had S100 on half of the hood and Souveran on the other half. Unfortunately, I could not get pics of it since I didn`t have a digicam nearby (soon to be remedied).



IMO, it`s a toss up in the gloss department, but the feel between the two is slightly different. Souveran has more of a sensual feel to it.

S100 is pretty darn slick. How much slicker is Souveran (I haven`t tried it yet), but more importantly, does it really matter? Personally, I wouldn`t let anybody rub up against my car. Oh, I suppose it depends who it is and what they`re rubbing! :p

I love this stuff... :up



However, I applied some to a large sourdough muffin, toasted to perfection and topped off with a thick layer of Smuckers grape jelly... ewwww!!! NOT GOOD!!!



Stick with the Land-O-Lakes... :xyxthumbs

So is S100 and P21S basicly the same thing? I`ve heard that it is.

Yup... :up

Tried Blitz Wax, provided great depth and color, but the dust it attracted made me look elsewhere. Have used P21S for a long time (on various cars/colors), and it does a fine job (no dust problem), but for depth and richness of color, so important to my (present) black car, P21S is not equal to Blitz - IMO. Sure P21S provides depth, but it`s best aspect is it`s sparkle/shine. Switching to Souveran has given my black paint the look of Blitz (multiplied slightly), without attracting dust. Of course, if I had silver paint, I`d want to highlight that colors best feature - sparkle/shine, and P21S would probably fit the bill. Basically, for my application, Souveran worked best. Both P21S and Souveran are very easy to work with. Blitz is also user friendly, but produces a little dust when buffing off.

As promised, a pic of the blue Acura now with S100/P21S:

I would say there is a bit of depth, clarity, rich color and reflection, at least on this particular color.

Did you do this all by hand Scottwax?

Yeah. I polished it with Meguiars Swirl Free Polish then applied the S100. I like their paint cleanser, but Swirl Free does just as good a job for a lot less (since I can buy it by the gallon).

I especially like how the light plays off the front fender. A really, really nice job! By swirl free polish do you mean #9?
