Differences in Waxes

[bsell]

Hi All,

What is the differences in the paste waxes of BF, Fuzion, XMT, & Pinnacle Souveran?

[rider9195]

Midnight Sun, Fuzion, and XMT 180 are all carnauba based waxes with polymers blended into them. This gives them extra durability compared to pure carnauba paste waxes. Pinnacle Souveran is a pure carnauba paste wax so it doesn't last as long as the others but it does give a great warm look.

Also the percentage of carnauba between them varies some.

I'd say skip these PBMG waxes and try Finish Kare 1000p or Collinite 915, the 2 best waxes out there under $50...

I have my wife's Acadia with one coat of 915; going on about 6 weeks now. The car is due for a wash and even under the fine layer of dirt I can still feel the slickness of 915.

Thanks for all the feedback!! I'm trying to decide which wax to spend my hard-earned money on! Right now the Black Fire and the Collinite seem to have drawn my interest.

Has anyone tried the Chemical Guys waxes?

Also, does a higher priced wax = a better wax?

Stewie, can you let me know what you base this on?

I know this question will show my "newbie" status, but what does the acronym PBMG mean?

I have Pete's 53 from Chemical Guys an it is by far my favorite wax! I have Liquid Souveran, Dodo Juice Light Fantastic, Purple Haze, Diamond Hard an it is still my favorite that I have used! Now I haven't pulled the trigger on any expensive waxes yet an plan on getting some in the near future. I will say tho that the Light Fantastic was an awesome wax but it is almost twice the price of Pete's 53

I love BFMS, but i use it only as a topper for BFWDPS(which is what it was really meant for) and it does a great job of adding that "carnuba warmth" over top of the depth and gloss of the BFWDPS.
