High end liquid wax?

[RallyMSP]

Are there any "expensive" liquid waxes out there? I keep seeing some paste wax cost a lot but hardly any liquids that are that spendy.

High end looks dont ALWAYS come from high end prices. Often you need to put alot more in prep to relaise the benfits of these more expensive waxes.



Liquid pinnacle souveran is nice. Zanio, more a of sealant isnt cheap but is very good!!

Already have Liquid Souveran. Wanted to see if there was anything else better out there. Maybe I'll try using an expensive Paste on the PC next time around.

Expensive does not always mean better.

It's all in the prep.....



Once the paint is right, you can top it with what ever you like....Wax or sealant.

I could sell you some $1000 liquid wax if you want. :lol

Waxes and Sealants are for durabilty. Polishes/glazes are for looks.

 

[joshtpa]

Wxes are not just for durability...I dont think people use Souveran for durability.

more like everything we put on are for looks

I consider Clearkote CMW a high-end liquid wax - probably my favorite liquid as far as looks go.

MDRX8 had his hands on some liquid that he really liked... I think it was called Autoderm... it's only like 20 bucks or so but it holds its own against the big names apparently.

All the prep you do is for looks. Waxes and Sealants are for protection. Next time you detail your vehicle after, let's say a year. Just put a wax or sealant on, and tell me how it looks.

Very nice product. Very user friendly.

so you are saying 7k zymol royal = 5 dollar turtle wax in appearance department,

except one might have better durability...



why don' t you just do a simple test

wash car without polish/wax

wash car without polish but wax........



maybe this way you'd know if wax add anything to the car

 

[kleraudio]

well, 7k zymol is a bit crazy. I wouldnt say it = 5 dollar turtle wax. I mean zymol would obviously have better ingredients and such. BUT... that said, If you put zymol and 5 dollar turtle wax on top of PERFECTLY prepped paint, say 1/2 your hood zymol, 1/2 turtle wax, you might be hard pressed to tell which is which..... Im sure you could figure it out but it wouldnt be mind blowing or anything.



Its all in the prep.

Waxs and sealants will definately help out a non-prepped finish. Some, way more than others. On a fully prepped car, even a trained eye might not be able to tell which one looks better. Even brand new black cars could benefit from polishing and then waxing/sealing more than just waxing alone. That could explain/show the true added benefit of LSPs.

 

[kyotousa]

anyway i agree with prep is important...however, wax does add appearance factor to the car.



The reason you can't tell is that people can't distinguish 95 from 100.....

But I am pretty sure people will notice 85 from 100......
