have gotten in your new wax ordered from the sale. Are you impressed?
Is the shine what they say it is ? Easy to use? Tell Me Pleaseeee?

I will partially refrain .... but lets say I keep two tubs in my personal collection at all times. I sleep easier knowing it will be there when I awake.

I'm really torn between both souveran and signature on my silver met car, i read a lot about how souveran is a darker car wax, and that signature and liquid souveran are best for lighter colors as far a depth and pop..

I think this statement pretty well says it all as far as I'm concerned. Everyone should have a tub of this on hand.

im glad i bought some on sale but im in a sense afraid to use it... why does it contain mineral spirits? the liquid even smells like mineral spirits and thats what we use at work to remove stubborn stuff and clean whitewalls. are you guys positive that souveran is completely safe for the paint because the mineral spirits thing is scaring me sort of.

My post was specifically referring to the past wax. I've used/use the liquid also. It works as well as any carnauba liquid if not better. I don't have the affinity for it as I do the paste. The paste is just in another league. It also smells very pleasant. The smell you are referring to in the liquid is the type of solvent they use. I don't care for that smell either.

but the paste uses mineral spirits as well, which is my #1 concern right now with it. im just wondering if its completely safe because mineral spirits seems harsh to me. i really dont care how it looks if it could potentially hurt the surface

carnuaba is a rock hard substance, it comes in the form of chips. As such solvents such as mineral spirits are used to break it down to be spreadable and usable. Its not going to harm your paint ... infact, talk with a body shop and the common consensus is only certain low grade silicones can damage the finish and cause fisheyes when repainting. Wiith new VOC regulations in place, a carnuaba based product can only contain a small portion of mineral spirits and other solvents.
