Re: Best choice of finishing wax

Well as an update, I ended up getting Natty's Blue and it looks fantastic! I put down a coat of WG sealant, then 12 or so hours later topped it with Natty's. Now I'm getting the 8 sample pack of Dodo Juice and I'm stoked! I'm very interested in Blue Velvet as it's supposed to look good on darker colors.

Collinite 845! I just did my 4Runner 2 weeks ago with it and the shine was unbelievable! Sorry, I didn't take pics otherwise I'd post.

You're right about that..

I prepped with pink moose wax before I tried P21S 100% last week, and quite honestly I've used Zaino, Meguiars, the Clearkote line, (along with many others) and nothing I've tried looked as good as the P21s 100% on top of the pink moose wax.

I can't wait to use the Pinnacle. I'm going to prep with pink moose wax again. Is this ok with the Pinnacle?

Re: Best choice of finishing wax

I have a question.

Is it ever recommended keeping Pinnacle or any other nubas/waxes in a refrigerator? I came across a guy who keeps his Pinnacle Souveran, Swisswax, P21s 100% and high end Zymol waxes in a fridge.

Re: Best choice of finishing wax

waxes should be kept outside of severe temp changes. A freezer would not necessarily be good, but a refrigerator might work. I like those little wine fridges but wife would kill me adding one to garage.

Sometimes asking for forgiveness is easier than asking for permission.

I saw a small fridge at Sams today. I mentioned something to my wife about it.. She said why do you need a fridge out in the garage when you can come in take a few steps and get a drink? I said no not for me for my wax..

She laughed and looked at me like I was crazy... And then she went on down the isle buying groceries.
