| | | Souveran spray wax vs. Aquawax?
How do these products differ? I have a black car and I'm thinking about trying the Souveran paste wax (currently using P21S). Some folks have said the spray wax by Pinnacle is a nice way to finish it off but I have a bunch of AW and I'm wondering if that will work just as well. Thanks. |

| | | Souveran is billed as a carnauba wax but Aqua Wax is a sealant in spite of its name. From my uses the AW looks best the day after application, I have not used the other.

Thanks. | Aquawax streaks on blacks, and dark color vehicles. Souveran does not.

| | | "Aquawax streaks on blacks, and dark color vehicles. Souveran does not. "- I beg to differ with you Sir. I have used AW on black cars I've detailed and I use it on my own dark (Flint Mica) Toyota as well as my wife's dark burgandy van with no streaks. It's easy to apply, doesn't stain trim, works on glass and costs a whole lot less. Also it lasts longer than any plain carnuba wax. |

AW is one of my favorite "between details" product, looks and lasts nicely.

| | | But can anyone compare it to the Pinnacle Spray Wax? I have only used AW and it looks great and is so much cheaper, but if I'm missing out on something I'd like to know!
ps: I'd also like to second that AW works well on black w/out streaking. |

Flint Mica is a dark metallic, and you won't notice much of streaks on that color, as I didn't notice on my Desert Mist Acura.

| | | Weird, I didn't get any streaking from AW on our black. Biz partner used it on his brothers black Jag w/o streaking also. Haven't used Souveran Spray wax but from what people have said its an excellent product, can't go wrong with either.

| | Both are great products. I have used them both on dark colors, and have had no problems with streaking. I do think Pinnacle smells better
