    i was thinking. theres been a lot of talk about the more waxes cost the better shine they have.but from pics no one can really say .so heres an idea . some one take swissvax concorso. and devine or mystery. cover up the labels have some one mix the contaners up . wax there car and try to figure out which one it is !!! the 200 dollor wax or the 2500 dollor wax. good idea right??? the only problem is the smell the two might smell different so your going to have to stuff cotton balls in your noes:.:lol:

    The spelling and grammar are awesome in those posts!

    I only say this because I think some of your posts are too antagonistic.

    Do you really want Swissvax or not? Its only $250 for Concorso, order it and post an opinion. If your wife gives you sh*t about a $250 purchase, try lying about what you make. It works in my house.

    I doubt anybody on this forum could pick one out from another if we were to do each panel with a different Swissvax or Zymol. The looks are VERY VERY similar IMHO. Remember, it is 85% prep work and 15% your LSP choice. I have tried this test with my wife using Pinnacle Souveran, Zymol Concours and Zaino Z5p and she or I was never able to see any noticable difference. As long as it is a high end product and they all are they will look awesome. Now throw some Butter Wax into the mix and it is a different story. :applause2:

    This is one of the biggest problems with judging products by pictures on the internet. Do you really think you are able to tell the differences on panels between Turtle Wax, Vintage, Divine, or whatever.

    All you have to do is tweak the lighting and play with the pics and anything will look good.

    This is the problem with people jumping on the "Product Bandwagon" or the "Product of the Month".

    carlos try out mystery and devine and give us your honest opinion even if it turns out that they both have similer looks. dont feel like you shouldnt have bought devine if thats the case. your a collector and detailing is your passion. cant wait for the review.....

    B I N G O.....

    I'd like to witness a test like Carlos may do this weekend. I don't think you can capture the differences on a camera.

    ive actaully heard from the u/k site that most prefer swissvax over zymol. for mainly ease of use.

    Yea I agree, I mean I'm no pro at taking pictures to say the least but it's just so hard to see anything in pictures...I mean you can see if they missed a spot or a swirl/scratch and so on but depth, wormth and so on only by standing infront of it can you really tell..:shurg: man if we all lived close together we would get in so much trouble hahahahahahaha. Wifes would have so much time on there hands with out us hahahahaha.

    come on tom... you have quite a few threads going on about wax that a lot of us would not drop the cash for...

    Your Paul Dalton wax thread, do you plan on spending $500 for a wax?

    Your inquiries about Mystery again, do you plan on spending $500 for a wax?

    If not I am just curious as to the value of the inquiries?

    If you are really as interested as it would seem by the abundance of threads you have started regarding premium waxes determine how much money you are willing to spend and just do it, sometimes you just need to get the answers for yourself especially on such a subjective topic.

    Not trting to be a jerk but I just dont see the value in all the "is this premuim wax really all that " threads that you ahve started- I mean personally it doesn't seem like you are really considering buying them but just creating conversation

    Please dont take this post as me being a jerk but I am just speaking my mind
