I wonder what will happen to my 2 jars of MW after I ordered the Souveran paste. It'll probably sit on the shelf like all my other waxes that I currently use to randomly wax items around the house. Hopefully I'll try polycharged MW before I order souveran.

You guys can prolly sell the DP MW on autopia. That's where I bought mine. There's a trading post section that members trade/sell their stuff.

Well, I finally used the MaxWax with great success. Yesterday, I helped a friend detail his Suziki 750, which is a deep electric blue mtallic with white metallic trim. The MW did make the flakes POP.......my friend was amazed and said the flakes showed up more after the detail than when the bike was new. I guess I will try it on some of my other vehicles during their next detail.

MW is awesome for making the pearls and flakes pop out. Good to hear you've had success.

Hi there,
I'm thinking about buying this and apply on my new 08 RX350. Has anyone had experience with this product? Thanks.

Zaino products work very well on well prepped surfaces. I'd recommend claying the car before using Z-CS (similar to Optimum Opti-Seal).

Thank you! Just placed the order with some other stuff. I read the website and it doesn't seem like I need to clay but I ordered it anyway. Thanks again.

Trust me, you want to clay if your car has never been clayed before. You will see a difference.

When you get your clay, do a comparison on your hood. 50/50 with and without clay. Then run your hand over both sides and also notice the color. You will definitely see and feel a difference.

Good luck.

I'm with Tod. I did a clay, polish and wax job on my GS last weekend. It's a completely different look. One thing that I found was more dings or rock marks. I need to do some repairs. Question..... small scratches from rock.. do it yourself with a Lexus touch-up pen or have an autobody shop do it?

tod071

You can do it yourself. Do some searches on autopia.org on paint chip repair. There's a write up somewhere that mentions using a hole puncher to cut out wetsand paper, then gluing it to the pencil eraser. That is pretty much the same effect as Langka, which is my second option.

I've used Langka and got amazing results. Fine scratches afterwards, so I opted to not use the sealant that comes with the kit, and just polished out the scratches. Couldn't tell the chips were ever there.

I'm a Zaino fan. Posted these picks last week on the GS forum: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=295656

I'm with VroomVroom. Pinacle Souveran over Four Star UPP. Long lasting, deep, mirror like shine. Haven't found anything that tops it. A little pricey, but haven't seen anything that looks better yet.

If I notice any defects/swirls, I'll first use Klasse AIO followed by Souveran.

I have been using pinnacle products for six years. I recently bought their souveran liquid wax and love the product. I use it after every wash to extend the life of my wax. Great shine and it smells great also.

I am surprised there wasn't much for the 3m line. I generally use Megiures Gold Class for every month to month use during the summer months. Really deep shine but will "melt" off pretty quick. I guess the shine outweighs the rubbing on and off often.

But because I live around Chicago I give it a good coat of 3m wax in the fall just before it starts getting too cold to detail. It doesn't shine as well as the Gold Class, but it does still bead up till after it starts warming up for the spring clean-up and still looks pretty alright after going through a winter carwash.
