Looking for opinions on which spray wax to use as LSP after the mezerna treatment (SIP, 106ff, powerlock).


  • Einszett 1Z spray wax
  • Pinnacle Liquid Souveran Spray Wax
  • Optimum Car Wax
TIA,
Brian
 
This is easy. OCW. I just used up the 16 ozer, and went and bought a whole gallon. I use it after washing the DD's. It's a good semi-warm glow for a nuba spray wax. I believe it does have some polymers in it too to aid in durability. It does last a decent amount of time... and beading is quite good.
 
Sorry, I don't know if this makes any difference, but, the cars will be white & silver in color and I live in a humid state (TN).
 
The Pinnacle Liquid Souveran Spray Wax and the Optimum Car Wax are both great choices. You really can't go wrong with either product.
 
I like Four Star Ultimate Spray Wax Plus, Optimum OCW, and SCG Speed Demon. I have a sample from my last order from Autogeek of the Pinnacle Souveran Spray Wax, i'll give it a shot this weekend.Im the MAN
 
I like Duragloss Aquawax. Never tried any of the others. However, OCW seems to get raved reviews.
 
OCW! I missed not having any then traded my neighbor a qt of ONR for a 32oz spray bottle. He just got done doing an ONR wash on his white tundra and finished it off with OCW. SUPER SLICK!
 
Another vote for a great product: Optimum Car Wax :props:
 
Four Star Spray Wax is indeed another choice.
 
i put souveran spray wax on my truck 2 weeks ago and still getting beeding:xyxthumbs:. the best spray wax out there!!!!!!! i use carnuabas . not sure whats a goodspray for sealants.. i think scott mentioned one in another thread fourstar i think?
 
What's the difference between the two in your opinion Richard?

I vote for Aqua Wax. OCW is a close 2nd.

I am curious about your thoughts on this too, Richard. I have both (I got Aqua on BOGO a couple weeks ago). I used both, and they say AW is to be used on wet surfaces after a rinse, to aid in drying, while OCW is straight dry. I think OCW is slicker and has a vibrant glow to it compared to AW.... just my 2 cents. What you think? Both are easy to use. With no streaks.
 
For what it's worth I have never used Aquawax (a sealant) on a wet surface. It works just fine on a dry clean surface. If used too often (weekly, same car) it can mute the flake/paint slightly. Optimum Spray wax does not and can be used as often as you see fit.
 
Not a spray wax, but my vote goes to Dodo Red Mist. I've used mine about 5-6 times, and despite it's small size not much is missing. Definitely another one to consider.
 
In my experience OCW collected more dust (road grime) than AW. Scenario: I drive 150 miles one way to work, usually on Monday, and stay at my apt. until the drive home Thursday. Since the spoiler on my car is like a giant shopping cart handle and I hate it, a lot of road grime collects on the rear of the car. I decided to test out OCW on that section of the car, yuck! After stripping that I applied AW with less dust accumulation.

I have been lucky so far and haven't experienced streaking with either product, both are so easy to use, and the price is obvious. Don't get me wrong, I still love OCW and a gallon of that will be joining the gallon (total) of Aqua Wax that I have! I admit though, I haven't used either product to assist with drying, only FK 425.

You normally would use a QD to aid in drying, but being able to use a spray wax/sealant while drying, I think that is awesome! If you really think about it, that's why it might be called AQUAwax. :)
 
Good point... given that, I really don't know about AquaWax durability. OCW is decent. Anyone have any idea how lonq AW lasts??? My guess would be not long.
