Hey SuperBlack, can I apply the Pinnacle Souveran wax when the temp is as low as...say 45 degrees?

 

I dont see why not. Ive done it. It might not be as good as say 70 degress, but it will work.

 

anyone besides me ever clay bar their Z?

 

3M Liquid Hand Glaze.

 

tried 3m. .it's not that great to me. .

 

I claybar'd mine before starting my Zaino process. Six layers later, haven't claybar'd her in a while.

 

I do

 

i've done it least 20 times now. .smooth like a babys ***. .

 

Ive clay barred parts of my sti every time I wax it, but Ive only fully clayed it once, and never fully buffed it, ahh the joys of a white car.

 

yeah i used to have a nice 87 bmw 325 is. .white was the best. .i used to NU finish it when i was younger. .and just take a a damp shammy and wipe it down when it got irty n it shined once agian. .i loved white. .but when getting th z i went to an auction and the black one was the best one they had Plus stick that day with only 7k miles on it for 20. .sOOooo i had to go with black!!!!

 

Like anything, it depends on your taste and pinchon for spendingmoney once you get pass the cheap stuff. Most people here will tell you Zaino (whole detailing kit for about $100 I think). But, I've seen wax and/or polishes that costs as much as $500 per 8oz (#1 Yellow Carnuba). There is another product that costs about 8k per tub and they use the stuff on Enzo's, Ferrari, Bugatti's etc. So, best? Or, best you can afford? IMHO, almost anything better than Nufinish or other no name brand will do. The tip from your detailer is probably your best bet. I've got a superblack 350z and that's what I use as well.

 

today for the hell of it im trying EAGLE ones NEW micro PASTE wax. .so far it's looking DAMN good. .so im going to do the whole car n post a pic for ****s and giggles. . .

 

I have that in liquid, looks good on green cars, never tried it on black

 

i use zaino with p21s layerd over it. looks great on black expically with no swirls since i polish it. i wanna try sovren and pinnicle.

 

its pinnacle souveran, pinnacle= company souveran= the wax. And its much better than p21s.

 

has any one ever tried the wax called I-BIZ. They are talked about alot on corvette fourms. I see his presations all the time at carsile at the car events. he will clean pennies and glasses, etc. But i always laugh and walk away its pretty expensive but i just dont like to buy things when it takes that much effort to sell them to me. But im just wondering if any one has tried it or seen it before?

 

Haven't heard of the stuff. One thing, corvette owners overrate car detail products so much. That's why i never listen to what they have to say. Just like the whole zaino ordeal. Plus, a lot of corvette owners also push their own line of auto beauty boutique products, so you will see a lot of bias comments.

 

so far it's been 3 days and let me tell you . .that NANO WAX PASTE made by eagle one. .has done the JOB that i wanted. .3 days of driving back n forth and leaving it inside my dusty shop. .and no dust has stuck to the paint at all. .it's still gleaming with that mirror finish and clean as can be. .im pretty amazed. .although im deff going to get remarks. .im telling you. .it's so far the best wax and extremely easy to use n take off. .

 

Being a detailer myself, and having owned 5 black cars, I'll offer some advice.

One of my fav combos is Clearkote Red moose glaze under their Carnauba moose wax. Amazingly wet combo.

Pinnacle Souveran is great.

I even like OTC Mother's FX Synwax, Walmart has them for $8.50, way under normal retail.

P21S doesn't last long, but looks amazing on black too.

Good luck!

 

Yep, Meg's liquid 26 is a great wax too, forgot about that.
