    Difference between liquid and paste Souveran

    Is there any significant difference between Souveran's liquid and paste form wax?

    I was surprised to find out that there actually is...well at least I think so. The paste Souveran is good for darker colors it works really good on black or red color vehicles. Gives the paint more depth and give it that wet look.

    As for liquid Souveran, I've used on my silver SUV and it makes the paint pop. I didn't believe that silver and white (light colors in general) are harder to make the paint pop or give it that wet look. After using the liquid Souveran I noticed a big difference on the silver color paint.

    Others here have used it on white color vehicles and say they like the depth it gives.

    This is just my opinion, I think other members (more experienced members) will have different opinion about it but then again maybe not.

    Pretty much what Nica said is what I've heard. I also believe Liquid lats a little longer. Both are supposed to be very easy to use.

    I have two tubs of paste Souveran on the way and I'm excited to use it on my white Mustang.

    I just applied my 2nd coat of Souveran paste. I've been a regular user of liquid Souveran, and CM. Their is in fact a difference. Paste has a very warm, deep reflective effect, although I was surprised in the deterioration of slickness after wash (I use NXT wash) Since applying the 1st coat a week before. I found Liquid to have more of a mirror effect. I applied the 2nd coat of paste just before sundown so I couldn't catch the light, so tomorrow I will be able to see what effect if any, the 2nd layer achieved.

    Liquid works well on all colors, designed for silver, and light colors.
    Paste is designed for blacks and reds, and makes color soaking wet.

    From what I read, NXT wash seems to strip down the wax more than most car washes. I use it during my strip down period.

    Yep, I think there were actually a few threads on it. I too use NXT to help strip down previous wax.

    add a couple ounces of Poorboy's bug squash to it during strip down period.
    That's what I use.
