Default Pinnacle Wax or Zaino Wax??

Which one is better? I use Zaino, but want to try something else if there is something better.

I'm going to be hitting the "BUY" button on one soon so chime in!

Sorry this is in the Touring section. The Detailing section is as slow as a herd of turtles.

I have both and have used them for several years. They are both very easy to apply and leave a fantastic and deep shine. Zaino lasts much longer. IMO, with the latest changes to Zaino, there is very little (if any) difference in the end result - both are very deep and very wet looking. In the past Souveran had Zaino in the "depth" category. No more, IMO.

Thanks Jeff

I was contemplating the proven Zaino Z2 followed by the new Zaino Clear Seal vs. the Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant followed by the Pinnacle Liquid Souveran Wax.Both seem like good combos, but I want the "wettest"looking shine.

Zaino?

I've used Zaino for years. It's hard to beat. I don't know much about the other stuff. I tend to stick with what I know works.

Good luck

You guys left out the best polish I've ever used, and I've tried them all. Glare Propolish. Nothing else compares to the depth and protection of that product...it is truely amazing stuff.

Ditto on the Zaino. I use it on all my cars and bikes. You pay a premium but that's what you get . . .a premium product. Everything they carry is top notch. If you really want to try something amazing, try the CLEAR SEAL. It is super for using on a perfect paint job. I use it after I clay the paint and wax as an "overcoat." I think Turtle wax makes a similar product called ICE.
