Pinnacle Souveran - How much % of Carnauba??

Can anyone REALLY REALLY see the difference between a car that has Souveran, Max Wax, Natty's Blue, etc. on there?

I try to convince myself all the time, but on black, it's tough!

The olny way to be certain would be to use a 'gloss meter'

Specula Reflection (Gloss Meter):
The intensity is dependent on the material and the angle of illumination. In case of non-metals (coatings, plastics 60-degree) the amount of reflected light increases with the increase of the illumination angle. The remaining illuminated light penetrates the material and is absorbed or diffusely scattered dependent on the colour.

Materials with a higher refractive index can have a measurement value above 100 gloss units (GU), e.g. films. In case of transparent materials the measurement value can be increased due to multiple reflections in the bulk of the material. Due to the high reflection capabilities of metals values of up to 2000 GU can be reached. For these applications it is common to document the measurement results in % reflection of the illuminated light - 60 degree Gloss Meter, Micro-Gloss 60, Model SGB-4460 -http://www.worldoftest.com/glossmeter.htm
