    Pinnacle SSII vs. Swissvax Glacier

    Hey guys, now I know that Swissvax products aren't sold on this website, but I have a Summit White Cobalt SS (Pic in avatar) and it is quite hard to get white to have that wet shine that all the other colors can get.

    On to my question, have any of you used Swissvax Glacier? (It's made specifically for White paint) and how would it compare to Signature Series II for white paint?

    (And yes, I know that Swissvax is 3X as much as SSII ($50 compared to $160).

    Also, do you have any other suggestions for a wax on white paint?
    I know that Dodo Juice White Diamond Hard wax is another contender...

    Thanks for all the help, it's much appreciated.

    Liquid Souveran as opposed to some sort of paste wax?

    For some reason I ALWAYS got the impression that paste waxes were superior to liquid waxes....

    Most paste or liquid will give you about 6 weeks. If you want durability go with a sealant.

    Oh yes, I should have noted, I am layering this on top of DP Poli-Coat paint sealant, the sealant for longevity, and the wax for shine. I assume that I will have to reapply whichever carnauba wax I go with every 3 months or so.

    Depends what nuba and the conditions your car goes through. I would wax every 2 months or sooner.

    I'll take SS II over liquid souveran anytime on white.Liquid souveran does nothing for me on white in person.

    Re: Pinnacle SSII vs. Swissvax Glacier

    Thank you for the link CieraSL, I had actually already read that thread and replied...but thanks!

    SO 02CAMSS, you would NOT suggest liquid souveran on white? Have you used both Liquid Souveran and SSII on white?

    Thanks

    I have both SSII and a sample bottle of Liquid Souveran. I can do a 50/50 comparison on the hood of our white Odyssey if you like, and you can see which one you'd prefer. Do you have either SSII or Liquid Souveran? I also have Poli-Coat if you would like me to layer it.
