Wax Choice >$100

[6supersport7]

I will be in the market for a under $100 carnauba wax here soon. My Souveran is almost out after about 4 years of use. I absolutely love Souveran but would like to try something else. This wax will be for a Black 67 Chevelle SS that is only shown and taken to cruises so longevity is not an issue. It has been fully corrected and I like that little something extra a nice carnauba gives. I'd like to stay around $100. The black paint is very soft so easy on and easy off is a must to keep swirls away. I also like the deep look opposed to the shiny plastic look. I was thinking of trying the Migliore Primo or BF Midnight sun? I am open to suggestions.
Thanks

The Chevelle

Hmmmm....... Dodo Juice Supernatural

Since your paint is very soft, will Opti-coat your paint help in preventing swirls?
After Opti-coat, apply your favourite wax on top?

Wolfgang Fuzion ... big one comes with a free refill too.

[HotRodJoe]

Yeah, I vote for Fuzion, too. I had Souveran paste, then got a sample of the Fuzion, then quickly traded off the Souveran. My car is a black show car, too, with soft clear.

I absolutely love Souveran but would like to try something else.

Just like these vintage ads suggest: ('A Resolve') ...

...it's hard for me to turn away from "something I absolutely love".

Goes against my grain, as well as the mantra: "Find something you like (let alone 'love', I'll add) and use it often"! ~M.P.

But, of course, that's just me...and my aplomb!

Sounds like fuzion is at the top of the list as of now. I always thought that it was a carnauba/synthetic blend and gave off more of a sealant shine. I will have to do a little research on it. Thanks for the ideas!!

I actually thought about just ordering more souveran but I got that itch to try some other things out. I can always go back!!

Blackfire Midnight Sun. Easy on and easy off. Gives a nice warm glow too.

Now...This is the most expensive wax I've ever purchased...(Pinnacle Signature Series II):

And...because I've come to enjoy it's characteristics...(I can't find it within myself to "love" something that can't reciprocate)
I won't be switching to any other, more expensive, 'carnuba waxes'.

Again...That's just me!

I'd strongly suggest Midnight Sun for under $100 but I'm also leaning toward Dodo Juice straight 8 if you're just looking for something different. Why try one different wax when you can try many?

[Mustang_Matt]

Another vote for Blackfire Midnight Sun. I use it on my Red Mustang and love it. Easy on, easier off.

[BobbyG]

Fuzion is one of those waxes I'll always apply by hand, it's that nice. I like the way it glides on so easily and wiping off is just as nice. It''s a spectacular looking wax on dark colors and looks wet with a whole lot of depth....:props:

Zymol Glasur

Fuzion or Midnight Sun

Zymol Glasur

Hoping this stuff rocks, picking up a tub locally tomorrow. Why doesn't AG carry Zymol? Oh, and just so I don't completely high jack the thread, some comments on some waxes I've used < $100.00.

P21S 100% PC: Can't go wrong here. Easy to use, has slight chemical smell. No extra ingredients for coloring or scent. Great on light colors. Medium durability for a carnuba. Comes with awesome applicator. Not fussy at all. Everyone should own this wax that does a lot of detailing

Natty's Red: Super inexpensive wax. They could put it in a fancier tub with a fancier label and sell it for $60.00 and it still would be good. Great on dark colors. My favorite wax to work with. Very oily, but in a good way. Great wax to apply with your hands. Durability is just so- so. Awesome smell. Smell like strawberries? And also has an underlying "burnt" type smell once you working with it. Great wax. Easy on and off, one of the fastest waxes to work with, you can do a whole car in no time.

Lusso Oro: One of the best smelling waxes, smells like tropical sun tan oil. Physically, it resembles P21s. Apply it thin and remove fast or it can be hard to get off. Beading is excellent for a wax in this range. Durability seems to be better than most. Nice wax at a great price ($40.00). Looks great on any color

Dodo Juice Purple Haze Pro: Great smell (lavender?). Spreads pretty smooth and comes off easy. Great on dark colors, but I swear it gives a purple tint with many coats applied. Durability is just ok. Premium boutique feel and fun to apply. Gives black an "inky" look. Everyone with a dark car needs a panel pot of this. This may or may not have re-hazed a few times on me, as I was using multiple spray products with it.
