In the detailing product business, who has the best and worst looking packaging? My vote-



Best: Meguiars and Werkstat



Worst; tie between Zaino and Klasse
 
I guess I should have been more specific, I'm not talking about the functionality of the containers, what grabs your eye and tempts you to buy a product.
 
....yeah, CG has to be one of the worst. It looks like a product label used by someone operating out of their garage.

Back in the day a company called "Snap" used really cool pics of classic/exotic (well, exotic for the early '70s) cars on its packages, and yeah...that grabbed my teenaged eye all right!



But these days I really don't care about such stuff and am more likely to cynically think "gee, I'm supposed to pay for that fancy package?!" and actually prefer a no-nonsense look.



Just a personal quirk of mine, but I find the PoorBoys name/logo/connotation very off-putting. So much so that I basically skip that product line altogether; I just don't relate to what I perceive as their mindset.

Funny you say that...when I listed them as one of the worst in the above post, I was going to say something very similar to this, but refrained as I thought people might think I was being ridiculous. Glad I'm not alone. :)

Yeah, I did wonder if slamming them (eh, *VERY* poor choice of words :o I don't want to come across as slamming) would make me sound like a Richie Rich or something, but hey...can't please everyone and I'm sure they're doing just fine without my business. For all I know their products are simply wonderful and I've never heard anything but good comments about their customer service and the people running that company.
 
A lot of good ones out there that grab my eye.



A few that don't: Menzerna, Chemical Guys (except Stripper Scent), Poor Boys, and Zaino.





I honestly could care less what the packaging looks like as long as the product is good. ;)

I'll risk sounding like some blue-nose (heh heh, people who know me IRL would find that pretty amusing :chuckle:) and say that the "Stripper Scent" description makes me :rolleyes: I just assume that I'm not in that product's target demographic so I'd never think of giving it a try.

Just in case anyone wants to know, the scent in stripper scent is musk.

Worst across the board has to be Collinite.

Love their products, but the packaging is ugly 70's era funkadelic.

Yeah, Collinite's labeling is pretty bad. You definitely get the distinct feeling that you are buying a product from the 70's.
