    Again, I think it`s marketing buzz talking. Remember, it`s a wax manufacturer making these claims (and yes, I`m one, too, so take it with a grain of salt). Changing the color from yellow to white does not make the carnauba any better. I`m not sure what they`re removing by "refining it a second time". It sounds to me like they`re removing the color, which would be bleaching.

    The carnauba manufacturers have graded it as #1, which is the purest grade possible. I don`t think there are any impurities left to remove, so it sounds to me like a marketing process, not a product improvement process. If it was #1 before, and #1 afterwards, the quality is the same. They`re only changed the color.

    But, hey, rather than everyone get in an uproar about some minor point like this, just use the product YOU think is the best.

    forest,

    No uproar, I think we are just having a little fun with it now.

    I believe your point about about the grading sums it up nicely!

    Fun, man this is the internet. There`s no time for fun. This is serious stuff. The fate of the free world could be teetering on what color carnauba is the best. I gotta know SOON, before that spaceship with the tractor beam lands in my backyard, because I read on the internet a certain color carnauba will protect me from it, but I can`t remember the color, and I can`t find the site, Google be damned. It must be a Bill Gates conspiracy (maybe he`s an alien).....

    Or maybe it`s Al Gore, after all, he said he invented the internet.
