Pinnacle Souveran Spray Wax?

PColav6 · 09-04-2007, 02:13 PM

Any of ya use it?

I'm hopping on the bandwagon and starting a small detailing business, but I'm not charging much at all right now; ie- wash with Meguiar's GC,clay (pinnacle),polish (pinnacle XMT),windows (DP),and wax (Meguiar's gold class) by hand is only 45$ on a car

Ordered some stuff from AG last night and then read on the AG forum about how amazing the souveran spray wax is supposed to be, I guess it's more of a wax booster/top-off that yields best results when applied after a normal paste/liquid wax, right?

And should I just go ahead and switch to Souveran wax once I exhaust the Meguiar's? Almost everything I have is by Pinnacle, DP, or Meguiar's and I want to eventually just be using 1 brand for most of the exterior stuff.

Also I don't have a Porter Cable at the moment but plan to buy one ASAP..just got to learn about them because as of right now I don't know jack and they seem slightly intimidating.

This is mostly directed towards the detailing geeks here whitethunder & 03gtmustang

No not the crystal mist, it's actually a spray wax:

Nope, crystal mist is different. Souveran Liquid Spray is pretty good. Will only give protection for a couple weeks at best. I only use it after I wash my own car to bring back any lost shine. Its easy on and easy off, and yes I do SEE a difference after application.

Ill only recommend it to a customer if I gave the car a full detail, and applied a wax within the last month. Otherwise, Ill recommend a paste wax or sealant. It just doesn't last long.

On a side note, I dont believe in polishing by hand. Ill polish a car with the PC for 4 hours to make it perfect. Itll take twice as long by hand, and it still wont come out perfect. Try polishing a vette or an 03+ benz with the new ceramiclears. If its bad, you wont even be able to touch those cars with a cutting pad and SIP. So I wouldnt even offer polishing until you can use the PC.

From what I understand, you should even bother using polish if you are applying by hand. I would take all of my cars to you for a $45 wash, clay, ect.
