I was honored with the opportunity to test out and review a already fantastic product, that has now been improved. We all know what an outstanding product Souveran is. Well now Pinnicle has taken this great wax and amped it with Polycharger :awesome:
I really wanted to apply it to my car which is black, but I currently have 4* USWP which was applied last weekend. I want to see what kind of durability, I can get from USWP, and its supposed to rain the next two days. I'm looking for something I could possibly team with AW for the up coming hurricane season. Therefore, I decided to apply Souveran, which was in the liquid form we all know and love, to my lovely wifes car.
Before today the LSP I had on her Tracker was Opti-Seal. I preceded to clean the finish with S&W. After which I followed up with Eco Touch WCWP+. I had read that this product would essentially remove your LSP, and it felt like it did. I found it a little difficult to work with. Although I was working outside, but the finish was merely warm, not hot to the touch. After your initial swipe across the panel, the product hazes over the finish. At which time you must flip your MF and buff. Which I don't mind but once the MF starts to get a little damp, you start to fight a losing battle. Now working on a cooler panel might make things a little easier but, like I mentioned above, the panels were not hot to the touch. This was my first time using WCWP+. Application seemed like it would be a easy way to remove prior LSP. I do want to see how long this new LS will last on its own.
After Eco Touch I started with LS. I applied LS with a CCS Wax Applicator. Application was a breeze, and I actually think removing it was even easier than applying it. I was left with a deep, glossy, wet look that we all come to love and appreciate Souveran for. You don't get a whole lot of flake pop from LS, so the finish in the pictures isn't grabbing you, but the depth and gloss is great. It ended up raining today, and it had just started just has I was finishing up and snapped these pictures. Not much of any sunshine by the time I finished :(
It was neat watching the droplets bead instantly.
So here ya go:

No pop, but depth

I want to thank AG for giving me the opportunity to try out the new Souveran. It was a pleasure.
