no paint correction nor prep.
just a normal ONR and fuzion.
had supernatural on a few weeks before. was fantastic on its own, but with the fuzion, it was much much better
the car's got metallic paint, so it's really hard trying to get it to look deep and have nice reflections. fuzion made it possible.

i've got souveran and 5050 unopened, wonder how they will compare with the fuzion.
so I guess no need for the ssII BOGO then... :)

enjoy...

it is the best wax afterall.

easy application, easy removal. very forgiving even when I put it on too thick , left it on for too long .

Waxes I have worked with , not many,
p21s original, natty's blue, Dodo Supernatural.

p21s - first wax I used. very easy to apply and remove too . only thing was its too soft as a wax, and I ended up using too much, product wastage and gumming up of the pad which i suspect is the high content of beeswax. Low durability , and brightens up the paint, which is not what I would want with my graphite grey colour. overall, it s a good cheap and begineer wax.

Natty's Blue - Cheap , smells great and good looks. It will always have a place in my heart and collection. This will be the wax I will recommend to those looking for cheap and bang for your buck.
Only thing I didn't like is the need to wait till it hazes(cures) , and as usual I applied too thickly, and it was very very tough to remove.
but you know what I still love the look and smell of it.

Supernatural - Good looks, reasonable durability. No nonsense wax, no smell. but being me, I like to sniff as I wax. This wax is a little harder than usual wax. dont know if its bcos of me being heavy handed again or what, but I didnt really enjoy the buffing removal part. generated a fair amount of static. passengers all had a great time. oh well, I keep telling them to only touch the door handles when opening or closing the doors. good way to teach them and not leave any finger prints on the door panels :)

Fuzion - absolute joy. love the smell, and ease of everything. and especially the wide mouth jar . May I suggest all waxes (Pinnacle) to come in those wide mouth jars .

I have a couple of water spots and contaminants on the roof, havent found the time to do a proper clay and correction. and no matter which wax or sealant I used, it was hard to get a slick surface (duh) . but somehow fuzion managed to "hide" them and leave a smooth glossy surface on the roof.
just look at the reflection pics on the roof !

only thing , and may I suggest, is to offer a cheaper version, more of a no frills version, minus the box and dvd.
Just like what Dodo Juice did.
They now sell wooden and plastic jars of their Supernatural wax. and they make it clear that the huge difference in price is the wooden container, and leave the choice to the customers.
Good talking and selling point for professional detailers , but for weekend warriors like me, im sure the majority would prefer a simple version. and of course your target segment group will be much bigger with a lower price.


as you all would observe, I'm actually a sealant guy. I apply liquid sealants with my meguiars g220. (which explains my lousy skills with application of waxes)

## M-seal = wonderful wet reflections, but tough to remove , and buff in my opinion. and this is even after using the red ccs pad on my g220 to lay down a thin layer.

4* UPP polycharged = ah this is a worthy contender. very minimal amounts used for one application, and wonderful slickness and look. very similar to fuzion. perhaps fuzion has deeper reflections. UPP is my go to sealant for now.

Opti-seal = unfair to compare the application , removal part. only thing I can comment on is that it does leave behind a glassy look. if you like the look of a thick thick clearcoat like 1000p , go for it. easy time saver.

Optimum spray wax (new formula) - smell good good good. and easy to apply and remove too. my only doubts are its durability. guess I will use it as a top up wax after each wash, something like how people would use crystal mist.



I still have unopened products, UPGP, ## 5050, Souveran, 1000p, Jetseal and samples of DGPS (old and new versions) . dont know when I will get to them. but the next two I want to try and compare , Souveran and ## 5050.

I really wish more people would join in the fuzion , and see the light.
im so happy with fuzion now, i'm thinking of selling the other unopened stuffs I have. too many lsp, too little time. just like what Mike Philips said, once you find what you like, stick with it.
hell, i dont even feel the urge to try out souveran... :p

from what i see, its the price that's holding many people back.
who knows, maybe a smaller version, like 4 oz , will be good ?


oh and Meghan, please show Penny these pictures too.
She's helped me out many times and always patient and accomodating to my endless requests.




lastly, thank you all for your kind comments !
I would like to know what you all think too :)

Fuzion is one of the best waxes for the buck. Remember, you get one free refill which makes it an outstanding value...
I still wanna get my hands on that SuperNatural though...

I am so glad you reviewed it against Supernatural which is the flavor of the month in carnauba. Thanks for your time and honest reviews as it should help those considering the purchase.

Thanks for the review and nice work on the EVO and great pics!!
I have to agree on the price of fuzion is holding many back from buying it but as SUPERCHARGED said you get a free refill and I didnt know that and im sure many others dont as well.
Yea AG can get away from the DVD and the wooden box as you can watch the DVD online and the box just makes the price go up. I agree it should be up to the customer to get the box and dvd at a increased price as im sure that would raise the sales of it right there.
I was going to use the Souveran paste on my newly painted talon but with how well the fuzion works im sure I wont be dissaponted.

thanks for all your great comments !

I'm sure Souveran will not disappoint. As someone on another forum said, fuzion is like Souveran, but with steroids.

next up to try will be Souveran, which I have unopened and sitting in the corner. but I wont be in a hurry, i'm satisfied with fuzion for now, and shall see how durable it is.

Thanks for your reviews....everyone has their opinions and there are many great products out there. I definitely prefer Fuzion over Souveran. I also like 5050...crisp reflections.

From your write-up, it sounds like you did the ONR/Fuzion over Supernatural. So the look may be somewhat a mix of the two? I have not had much difficulty with SN and certainly not the static issue you described. I will say Fuzion is tough to beat.

Fuzion's durability is what I am interested in and I want to know how much more durable it is versus Souveran.
