Question Pinnacle vs. Zaino vs. Formula 113

I have a question for u people.
I have a 2001 Millenium Silver GS and I would like to know which is a better wax to use to bring out a brilliant luster/deep look and which will last longer?
My Dad & I also collect Corvettes and a couple of them are dark colors, which one would bring out the deep look in those?

Thanks for your help.

Talking

Don't know about the other waxes, but my 430 is MilSil and, with Zaino, even my non-gearhead wife, unprompted, noticed that the shine was different/better than the carnuba base I'd been using before.

Plus, the stuff really does last as long as Sal claims. I rewax twice a year only because his site suggests it for daily drivers, but at 6 months, the water still beads just as it does when fresh waxed and feels as smooth to the touch.

Great stuff for MilSil and Pearl White (HER RX); there'll be other posters to reply about darker colors, for sure.

Default Zaino

I'd venture to say that almost everyone that has tried Zaino has stayed with it. You can do a search for "Zaino" and see how many references you find - and how many are committed to it. I've used all of the stuff available at the local parts stores and nothing compares. It really puts a deep shine on (especially) dark colors and it lasts a long time too - a bonus. To be honest, it does take some effort to get the first layer down. It's easy on and off but it's a multi-step process. Try it!
