I'd like to know what your guys wax collection consist of? what could you just not do without? I'm looking to place an order here soon, maybe a "boutique" wax as I've read some of you guys call them. I'm thinking that zymol vintage is out of my price range for now at least...
 
i like the zymol waxes as you know lol an the zymol leather products are great an so are the leather masters products. now i hear alot about swissvax but have not tried them yet but will soon.
 
Wow, my collection of waxes consits ofso many, however, some of my favorites are: Pinnacle Souveran, Dodo Juice Double Wax, and CG Butter wet wax.
 
I'll assume from your interest in Zymol and Boutique wax,you want recommendations for Carnauba wax.So for wax I would recommend Pinnacle Souveran as the above post,its very easy to use. But I really liked Wolfgang Fuzion better,for my eyes,the final appearance seemed glossier than Souveran. And I felt it beaded water longer. A sample pot of Fuzion is more than enough, and its reasonably priced. I would also like to recommend Meguiars Hi-Tech Yellow wax. I'm also very fond of Clearkote's Red Moose Glaze, though its not a wax. I don't feel that its the best filling product available, but I always notice reflections seem a little sharper. For a leather product,as you probably know,most automotive leather is coated/protected.The only product I ever found that clearly stated it was designed for such leather was "Leather Magic". It can be ordered worldwide from their website, shipping is quick and reasonable with USPS. I haven't used enough leather products to offer a comparison. But I had a good experience with Leather Magic cleaners and conditioners. There was actually a noticeable difference after the treatment. I was surprised to end up with so many formerly white towels. The conditioner also diminished the appearance of wear on my drivers seat.



Wax:Pinnacle Souveran,Wolfgang Fuzion,Meguiars Hi-tech yellow wax

Leather:Leather Magic

Other recommendations:Clearkote Red Moose Glaze.
 
Here is a quick question (not to get off topic, but since it was mentioned above). The Megs Hi-Tech Yellow wax. I think I had a tub of it several years ago and actually liked it. I don't remember if it was the Hi-tech yellow, though. It came in a yellowish/maybe goldish colored metal tub. I think it even said "Hi-Tech Yellow Wax) at an angle on the lid. The lettering was the same color as the can, but it went over a black colored stripe (I think). I am dusting off the cobwebs in the brain to try and remember! :tumbleweeThe paste was yellow, and it actually performed quite well. It was easy on and super easy off. Am I thinking of the same thing here???

Sounds like Megs #26. Did it smell like bananas?
 
I think everyone should try either Collinite 476S or 915. Pretty remarkable stuff in the beading and longevity aspects.
 
My list includes P21S 100%, P21S concours, Natty's blue, and soon Pinnacle Series II. I hear great reviews regarding the Pinnacle and it was offered at Autogeek as part of the VIP special.

I think I'm going to try some #26 to see how I like it before moving to a different carnauba wax since I already have some. I tried a search for results with 26 on here and couldn't come up with very much. I'll have some pics and feedback in about 2 weeks.
 
Thanks for all the responses so far, keep them coming, id like to see who all agrees on what. I can find that p21-s here locally at wholesale cost any else use that brand of wax? Your thoughts are appreciated. Also I remember autogeek doing some special on that fuzion, is it still available?
 
I am advid fan of 845 on daily drivers. One of my favorites is Wolfgang Fuzion as well. Although I just recently used 915 on my wife cars and Ill bet it is probaly one of the best waxes made. I have used swissvax glacier on my personal car and its gonna get stripped real soon. I'm going to 915 on it. I have the concorso as well, but haven't tried it yet. If your looking for a nice looking wax and you have a few dollars. I would suggest wolfgang Fuzion. Now if you want a wax with a NO bull **** marketing and works. I would go with 915.
 
my personal 2 favorite nuba's are still by far Danase's Classic Wax (sad to see it go) and DP's MAX WAX. I've tried several of the more expensive waxes and they looked good but I just didn't see enough of a difference to justify the cost difference. And a lot of the higher end stuff dosen't seem to have the longevity of the "normal price range" waxes that I've tried. To me it's either got to last signifigantly longer (by months not days) or just flat out look jaw dropping better than the other guys to justify that kind of cost. I haven't tried them all but so far I haven't seen either difference just yet.
 
You can't beat Dodo Juice Supernatural for the money. If you're looking to spend a little less, the Sonax Premium Class carnauba wax is excellent.

Aside from the collonites another good bang for the buck wax is chemical guys 50/50, if you want to splurge on a zymol wax, glasur is really nice, for swissvax Onyx looks just like concorso however it doesnt last as long. Dodo juice has the panel pots which you cant go wrong with them at all.



on edit: Optimum Car Wax is a must have, dont let the fact thats its a spray wax trick you into thinking its weak...its actually very awesome!
 
Overall for the price I like petes 53 or victoria concourse. Souveran is nice and so is 50/50. I haven't seen anything special about the dodo juice waxes I have, seems like a lot of hype. Next on my list is rubbish boys OE.
