Pinnacle Soveuran Wax

Shelled out the big bucks for their paste wax, came out very nice on the nighthawk black- but i think their liquid soveuran does a close job to the paste and is much cheaper. the liquid also buff easier and doesn't streak. The paste will last me a while but would recommned their liquid instead for people wanting to try their products.

the paste does have an amazing smell to it- almost like a pina colada as doest their car wash soap- more coconut. I think the soveuran paste is the most expensive wax on the market.

Pinnacle isnt even close to the most expensive wax on the market. Since you want everyone to think you're so rich why dont you go get a bottle of Swissol and let us all know what you think. Its only $1200.00 for the kit.

I've come to the conclusion that you either work for Pinnacle, because your shameless plugs are starting to annoy everyone, or you have no idea what the hell you are talking about. Or you are an 8 year kid playing around on mom and dads computer when they're not home. So which is it?

Either he works for Pinnacle or is very obsessed with a clean car. However, having a NHB car, I can dig it...

There are also some very very expensive Zymol waxes.

Ummm, OK - so you shelled out big bucks for Pinnacle Wax. I'm glad it works for you. I hope you're not trying to brag about how good a wax is based on how much it costs though. I've used a lot of different waxes - some were much more affordable than others, but they all gave me good results based on a number of factors, but most importantly based on how well I prepped the paint. Seriously, when you're using good stuff (regardless of cost), anything can and will come out looking good - just like how a professional photographer can use a cheap point and shoot camera but still get a great shot (or how an amateur with a $8,000 camera can keep taking bad ones).

Not knocking your love of Pinnacle, I just don't think you need to get on a high horse about it and keep talking about how much it costs. Everyone has their favourite stuff, so I'd love to see some pics of your car to see what Pinnacle's doing for you.

again don't think the paste wax which is their most expensive is that amazing. however it is good and makes the car look nice, but i know there are less expensive ones out their that are comparable. Have added a second layer today after it rained on the first- but beaded very well after the first and lots of head turning on the roads. hopefully the can will last me more than a couple of waxes at that price. Some recommend layering the liquid wax over the paste, but I am layering paste over paste.

floridaowner - take a picture of your car and settle this once and for all. If you don't have a digital camera, buy a disposable camera and any store can put your regular pictures onto a CD.

Am I the only one who has tried this stuff? they say it lasts longer than your typical carnauba wax but was wondering if anyone has tried it. Don't have a pic- car looks good to be honest but nothing too crazy so just settle down and imagine a black tsx with nice wax on it.

Haven't tried it, but I've actually heard that Souveran does not last that long, but looks really good on black or red. Thought about trying it but I've been using Zaino for a while now, and have been happy with it, so why mess with success?

Alright, thats it. I'm convinced. This dude is fu#kin with us. Nobody is this stupid. This has to be a joke. Or it could be he is "special". Either way, I'm not going to acknowledge anymore post from him. Not that his post were ever worthy of a response in the first place.
I kinda feel bad for raggin on him in the past. I think he is "special" and we shouldnt make fun of "special" people.

it never fails to rain here in florida after I wax. Some say it takes 24 hours for the wax to "cure"? would you suggest applying another layer if it rains soon after waxing?

was going to add a third layer due to the rain, but so much head turning didn't want the chiropractor to get too much business. After seeing it hold up within a few hours of a big rainstorm, the paste is a really good wax especially for people with nighthawk black.

Just wax everyday. In fact, just wax every 12 hours, just to make sure.

I enjoy the Meguiars NXT wax. Im not saying its the best of the best, but for easy applications and relatively good results, Im all for it.

If i'm not mistaken this is a wax forum, nothing wrong w/ praising something you like. You don't think all the guys pushing comptech headers over obx have an a motive in getting something out of it.


Go look at almost ANY wax forum and you'll find a group of zaino purists who are not even close to as bad as this guy. Give the guy a break. Pinnacle is a top of the line product that I'm sure most of you have never heard of or bothered to use. This guy is trying to help them w/ it.



If you find something that works great at what it's suppose to do, should you keep it a secret?


The guy likes taking care of his car, as do most of us who frequent this forum. Hell I wash my car 1-2x's a week and wax every 2-3. Does that mean when I push something I like (s100, NXT) that I must be getting something out of it?


Do you really think Pinnacle is going to be sending someone to a TSX forum to push it's product
