[Alex Haramic]

Own a 69 Oldsmobile 442 in good condition been kept on but I'm ready to try a paste wax on it color is red with black strips down the hood has a clear coat.

I really love the way PS21s 100% looks for the price. It does not stain plastic trim. Being that it's a 69 442 I'm guessing it's a garage queen. I say go for looks. If it's just a weekend joy ride car then you can go with just about any wax and it will last sitting in a garage. I have never used Pinnacle products at length. I used a few and really did not care or them. I'm not label bashing it's just preference. The shine on a car is in the polishing not the wax. The wax just enhances and protects all your hard work.

All versions are great ... P21S (original), P21S 100%, and Pinnacle SSII. No wrong choice, and you could even throw Blackfire Midnight Sun into the mix ...I guess I am not helping huh ??

Yea garage kept only take it out to car shows or a joy ride I think I will try out the PS21 what's the durability I mean it will last long due to my car stays in the garage but I was just wondering

[swanicyouth]

Which P21S? Both are very good. The cheaper one is a tiny bit easier to work with - but both are pretty easy. SS2 is a hybrid wax (has polymers), P21S is not.


If it was me, it would get the P21S 100%, their paint cleaner, and a free sample of Wolfgang Sealant. Then, put the sealant down and top it with the wax. That way you will have great looks and durability. I've done that many times with that wax and it works well.

Now that a car!! :props:
Both are good choices as far as wax!

The P21s 100% is a "100 %" Carnauba wax. Notice I put in "100 %" It is "100 %" meaning it contains no other waxes other then Carnauba. It just has more oils to make it workable then the original formula which has several other waxes in it as well. It has more durability because of the absence of these other waxes. I love the original formula it was easy to work with wipe on buff off. They both look great on any type of paint. For the money you can't go wrong with either. Remember it's a queen so I would go straight natural wax you don't need long lasting protection. I would not use any waxes with synthetics in it. You don't need endurance.
Nuba waxes Do not last long in general even less on a daily driver. Nuba needs to be blended with other waxes and oils to make it workable. In it's natural form it's hard as a rock. It also has a very low melting point. So in the summer when your out driving it is actually melting off your car so to speak. To add durability to nuba companies blend them with polymers to help extend it's life on paint making it last longer. Being a queen you really do not need that. With a garage kept not driven often only driven in good weather a coat of PS21 100% could last you 3 even more months before it begins to fail. If you want to extend it wash once a month and put another coat of wax on. I'm sure you have no problem going out once a month washing the 442 and putting another coat of wax on it.

Absolutely nothing wrong with P21S' double-first-cousin:
S100 Carnauba Paste Wax, IMO.

I also like its price-point.

I have owned and used almost every wax out their from cheap to super expensive and SS II competes with the best of them in terms of looks and its wipe on wipe off..
