What carnauba wax leaves the slickest finish?



I have used P21S and was considering liquid Souveran or S100.



Comments on these and any others would be appreciated.

I'm looking for products under $30.
 
P21s = S100



I've never used Souveran, but I know it looks great on black. I'm thinking on trying it myself. I've used P21s and I love it, don't know if Souveran is enough to tear me away from P21s. :o
 
I know the liquid Souveran is less expensive than the paste, but I'm not sure how good it is? Seems as though the top end carnaubas are in paste form.
 
I've used the Liquid Souveran before and I can say that it is amazingly slick. But, I had used P21S GEPC before the LS and the results were amazing. The paint was very slick.



I've also have the P21S wax but not together with the GEPC. I guess the LS is slightly more slick than the P21S (but realize that the prep was different for each of them). I'd say that if you already have P21S, get yourself some of the GEPC and try that.
 
Souveran PASTE is *NOT* a very slick wax. I like it and all, but it sometimes gets a downright soft, or "tacky" feel after a little while. Never tried the liquid Souveran, so dunno about that.



*I* find that 3M's Showcar Paste Wax leaves a very slick finish. It doesn't STAY all that slick for a LONG time, but it's sure not bad for a carnauba. Almost an "oily" feel (I mean that in a good way). Others that seem slick (to me) are the "heavy" waxes, like Meg's #16 and Collinite. These three are all the sort of waxes that "dirt doesn't stick to"; they "self-clean" in the rain.



When I used P21S (over VM, which leaves a quite slick finish too), I didn't notice it being *especially* slick. But then, I wasn't looking for that, so I might not have noticed (but then that tells you something too). Note that virtually ANY good wax will feel pretty slick right after you apply it.

I'd prolly say Megs #26 too. Slickness in a wax comes from the types of oils in it. In #26 its prolly the polysiloxane.

I hope that would be #26 liquid. My #26 paste isn't very slick at all...

I'd say Meg 26... especially if you wipe Meg 26 with FI or FD, dang, it's slick... hehe slicker than SG, Z or NXT IMO

What he said, especially followed with Final Detail.
 
S100 is very slick...some gurl friend of mine was leaning against my fender right after i had appiled s100 all over the car, she literally slid off the side!



i was alittle upset because i was hoping she didn't leave any scratches....



she was like " damn how mcuh wax did you put on?"





its been 2 weeks since i applied the s100 and its still slick!



even after a wash i can run my hand across the finish with ease
 
I use s100 and found it to be slick. The slickest wax I have found was Gliptone paste with teflon. Very, very slick!
 
Liquid Souveran is amazingly slick - by far the slickest carnauba I've used (which includes s100, Pinnacle Paste Glaz, #16, Collinite, Carnauba Moose, Mothers Premium, and Griot's Best of Show - off the top of my head).



While it is very slick, in my opinion, the longevity isn't the best.



The Wolfgang Sealant is also amazingly slick, but that isn't a carnauba so I mention it just as a side note.
