It seams like eshines p21s is whiter than rcbuddas s100. Has anybody actually tried both and are sure they are the same or is p21s whiter? Eshine could probably answer this because maybe his picture was off. It`s obvious eshine`s p21s is the white one, and rcbuddas whiter one is obviously Natty`s and the yellower one s100. If you open both windows and put them side by side, buddas looks a little different. Anyone know for sure, is the p21s and S100 the same wax? I`ve always took it for granted they were the same.

I believe the colours are slightly different, but it could be just colouring to differentiate for different markets. For all intents and purposes, I have read threads here where people have put them head to head and they were indistinguishable in both looks and performance.

I have had this arguement a number of times but people believe what they want. The two products have a different appearance so therefore they ARE different.



Given that, I can`t tell a difference in looks / performance ... etc between the two so the difference does not matter.

this has been discussed before here

Most interesting part is summarised here from ...

"I spoke with P21S and a also gentleman who helped develop the two products. Here are the differences:



S100

is designed for the curved surfaces of a motorcycle

has less carnauba

rates a 97 on a depth scale

is resistant to gas



P21S

is designed to look better on a flat surface

has more carnauba

rates 100 on a depth scale



The differences between the two products are subtle, so it is not surprising that most people can`t see them, but they are there none-the-less.



As others have pointed out, if you are happy with one or the other, certainly continue to use it. I`m not here to tell you one product is better."

I can see no difference (in performance); I feel that they are (at least to my eye) the same.

White will always look different on digital pics. Its likely just our cameras.

White balance settings will affect how white white objects look. Sometimes they`ll take on a yellow tint if the white balance setting is off, which is fairly common with point and shoot cameras or ones without manual white balance settings.

I have heard from industry people that they are in fact slightly different formulations.



I now use P21S on my car as a result of wanting the best possible results.
