Working on a Lusso high end wax......need help

A little bit of this is heading my way in Scotland, so I look forward to testing it - will let folks know my thoughts, it will be going on my 30k mile a year workhorse

PS - hello, haven't been on in a while!

 

welcome aboard...

waiting on Lusso to pour the samples.

 

Hmm, what scent do you plan on making them Phil? I say do both versions and see what the testers say about it

 

Good to see that some samples will be send out. Too bad I have not used many different waxes b/c I would of loved to test it out. Let me know if you need to fill spots . Either way cant wait to see pictures of the wax!

 

sure thing. I will let you know.

 

Forgive me but I am a bit lost with this thread.

So, Phil from DD is looking to come up with a Lusso wax, is that it?

I thought he was using SV. What happened? Not happy with SV anymore?

ps: Lusso looks fantastic on the Cobra and the 996. Wow, rarely seen a silver metallic this nice with a nuba wax.

 

I have a few vehicles to try it out on. No blues though. Ivory pearl, redfire metallic, darker grey matallic, and black. I've used quite a few waxes, but the highest up the ladder I've went is Supernatural. But I have used them in the range that you want this one to be priced at. I can provide feedback fairly quickly. I'd love to be a tester. If I fit the bill, add me to the list. No big deal if you would rather have someone else test it though.

 

very happy with SV no problems at all. in fact I will be doing a car with Blau Weiss later tonight.

I have an opportunity with Lusso to develop a wax that would have every ones input, what better opportunity than to do this...

pektel, where are you located?

 

Great idea.

 

I would like to test the wax, I have a black vehicle. However, I am not a pro, so I will wait for the retail version.

 

I too am not a pro, but would be happy to test the wax on MB paint (metallic silver and gloss black) and BMW paint (metallic navy blue) if interested, and can email you dSLR photos of the results.

Current LSP's on hand:
Natty's Red, Dodo SN v2.0, Dodo RBJE, RBOE, Zymol Glasur, Migliore Frutta, P21s 100%, Colli 845, 476s, 915... I think that's it? :shead:

 

Grand Rapids, Minnesota.

 

I too would be happy to test out some waxes in some wonderful blisteringly hot and dry Nor-Cal summer.

I can easily put it on (I'm responsible for upkeep / washing / polishing / waxing):
'08 Light Silver Toyota Tundra (outside)
'09 Dark Gray Acura TSX (outside)
'01 Light Silver Audi S4 (garaged, outside at work)
'02 Dark Blue Pearl Acura TL (outside)

 

What's a good wax for a silver metallic Audi?

 

I have access to:

06 VW GTI - Red
03 Nissan Pathfinder - Metallic silver
98 Nissan Maxima - Metallic gold

All are daily driven.

Have used lower end zymol, nattys, wolgang sealant, RBOE, klasses, and others in the price range.

 

Ya know... I've tried lots, and nothing's really stood out as being way better than anything else.

I've done:
Lusso Oro
SV Smargd
Zymol Concours
JS109 + Smargd
JS109 + Concours
FMJ + Lusso
FMJ
JS109

I've heard DP MaxWax is really nice on silvers, but I"ve never tried it. Honestly, I can't make one reccomendation over another other than they all look nice.

Expecially on my version of silver metallic. It looks nice, but never wow.

On the flipside, I did my dad's '08 Tundra with JS109 and SV Smargd, and it was simply stunning!!!

 

Thanks :thumb:

 

You know Phil, I'd love to be a tester as well. I have access to:

Brilliant Black Audi S4 - outside, daily driven
Firepepper Red Acura TL - outside, daily driven
Forest Green Metallic Dodge Caravan - outside, daily driven
Santorin Blue S4 - garaged, not daily driven
silver/grey metallic infiniti g35 s - outside, daily driven
pearl white g37 s - garaged, not daily driven
pearl white nissan 240sx - outside, not daily driven
Nogaro blue s4s - outside and garaged, daily driven

I know there's more...

I'd be able to get you feedback rather quickly...:kilt:

 

If I had access to a warehouse full of exotics, would that help my cause? I'm not kidding either..lol

However, I doubt they will let me detail all of them.

 

Well, assuming they're in good condition paint-wise, you'd really just need to strip any LSP and apply the tester
