Amazing Souveran!

I purchased the Souveran Sizzling Shine kit a few weeks ago. This is the first time I have used a carnauba wax since the '60's. I am very impressed!
Today my GTO got rained on and afterwards the car looked almost perfectly clean and spot free. I was almost in disbelief! I was expecting water spots and dirt all over the car.
Great stuff!

that kit was the reason I aligned with AG way back in 2002, I was totally blown away by Pinnacle products and Souveran specifically. It wont last as long as some waxes, but looks better and so darn easy to use when directions are followed. Most coats only take 10-15 minutes.

There are a number of fine carnauba waxes out there that are very, very close to Souveran when it comes to looks, at a much better price. There are also a quite a few that have more durability than Souveran.

However, there is just something special about the look of Souveran. Can't really explain it... but it's there.

I think that every detailing enthusiast should try Souveran... at least once. IMHO, when it comes to appearance, once you've tried Souveran, you have a measuring stick for all other carnaubas. I feel the same way about Zaino when it comes to sealants.

I am thinking of getting this Pinnacle kit for my new Silver 07 Nismo Z. What do you think?

Souveran Sizzling Shine Kit The wax for perfectionists!

With a 10% off I can get it for $90. I have been told Pinnacle doesn't have a sealant like Poorboys. It protects after the wax wears off. Thoughts?

jmark, that kit your silver Z would be good dude. Liquid Souveran is good for silver If I was you, I'd throw in some XMT 360 also. I've used XMT 360 on a silver car before and it looked pretty dam good. Use XMT 360 before waxing, it will clean, correct and seal in one step, then apply Liquid Souveran.

6LS2,

I have heard the Souveran paste is better. I think this kit has the paste wax. It also contains:

16 oz. Pinnacle Bodywork Shampoo
8 oz. Pinnacle Souveran Wax
16 oz. Pinnacle Paintwork Cleansing Lotion
16 oz. Pinnacle Crystal Mist Carnauba Detail Spray
2 Cobra Indigo Edgeless Microfiber Polishing Cloths
1 Foam Wax Applicator Pad
1 Microfiber Applicator Pad

Wouldn't the paintwork cleansing lotion clean the paint? Is the XMT360 a cleaner & sealant? Thanks.

Maybe this kit would be a better choice for my new Z? Too many choices.... I see the XMT series is more for machine applications. I think I'd rather do it by hand. Does Pinnacle make a hand applied sealant that works well with Souveran paste wax?

I think this answers my question.

Car Wax & Paint Sealants- Car Waxes, Show Car Wax, Best Car Wax, Carnauba Car wax, P21s Car wax, Pinnacle Souveran Wax, Meguiars car wax, Mothers

So according to this I use the Pinnacle or Wolfgang Paint Cleaner followed by Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant & finally the Pinnacle Souveran Paste Wax. What do you think?

This kit looks interesting... Finally, a kit combining the best of both worlds--taking your vehicle to the highest achievable level of excellence- Pinnacle - Wolfgang Souveran Kit
