    Liquid Souvern?

    I'm sure "thin is in" applies to this too but how long do you let it haze? Any tips to applying Liquid Souvern would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi Dave,

    I apply all my liquid sealants and waxes using my Porter Cable 7424 dual action polisher using a red pad.

    Pinnacle Liquid Souveran is a good quality wax. I've found it needs to be shaken very well in order to ensure the the formulation mixes well.

    Apply Pinnacle Liquid Souveran THIN like all sealants and waxes. It hazes in about 15 to 20 minutes under normal conditions. Once this wax hazes it buffs easily leaving a nice shine. There is "some" dusting but not in great amounts.

    Thanks Bobby,
    Since I have yet to machine apply I wanted to get started with this. I have a blue CCS pad but no red, I have read there isn't much difference though. Is there any problem if it is left on longer than say 20 mins?

    Applying with a blue pad is no problem at all and I don't see much different in the two either.

    Of course. I usually let it sit on average for 20 minutes but if you can leave it on as long as you like and buff at your leisure...

    I apply it by hand, to one panel at a time. Apply to next panel, then go back and remove..

    Shake it up good, you can apply to the whole car and come back in a week and still take it off easily if you put it on thin, it's super easy to use

    Re: Liquid Souvern?

    I'm sure the time it takes for a wax/sealant to dry varies because of ambient conditions. Temperature and humidity plays a big role in how long it takes for the wax/sealant to haze so there's no concrete answer. The best way to find out if your LSP is ready for removal is by doing a swipe test. Use your finger to swipe the sealant... If it smudges then it requires more time to dry but if it wipes clean then it's ready for removal.

    Re: Liquid Souvern?

    Like everyone said, it's very easy to buff off as long as you apply it very thin. I generally do a one side (or the roof, hood and trunk) and then start buffing off. Be aware that while it looks incredible and rain will literally bead into "water marbles" when it's fresh, it only lasts a couple weeks. But throw on a coat before you go out to dinner on Sat nite, and everyone in the lot will be looking at your car.
