    Very nice vehicle and the video looks sweet, I was finally able to see Crystal Rock beading on my Lexus and it's very impressive. Not sure what it is about beading but it's very addicting :thumb:

    Thanks for sharing :peace:

    I have used swissvax and I don't feel any differently. It's a good wax but definitely not worth the money IMO. I must say I'm sorry I wasted my money on it. If you thinks it's worth the money go for it. You 're entitled to spend your money on a product that's way over priced if you want to.

    um...so why'd you buy a gallardo and a viper? IMO if your already living in unnecessary excess, why go cheap when it comes to taking care of that excess? Sorry dude I know I'm being a bugger haha I'm just really impressed by swissvax

    I'm sorry mate, but that was not necessary. I would personally find it insulting if someone spoke to me that way. Gary has worked very hard for what he has. It's not because you have supercars that you automatically have to spend thousands on expensive waxes. Collinite will protect that paint just as well.

    Can we all agree to disagree here and just let it go?

    wow there must be something in the air or something because lately it's been nothing but BS here :confused:

    I would have to agree with P1et, who am I to say Gary should be spending $2K on a wax just because he owns a Viper and a Gallardo, remember detailing is a personal preference/choice.

    ampbmw, I don't "think" you meant any harm by your comment..again that's just me but in the future lets not jump to any conclusions with any member here based on what they have or don't have. Detailing Bliss is not a measuring stick forum, or anything like that, we all have personal preference and well it's just that personal preference.

    So please, please no more drama :beg:

    It's not about going cheap it about wasting money IMO. I can buy some great wax for under $100 and put the $1,000 towards my next exotic car or whatever. I didn't get where I am buy throwing my money away. If you want to spend $1,100 for some crystal rock go for it. I'm sure the guys from swissvax appreciate you putting your money in their bank account.

    I also have one of those cars, can't wait to see it in the sun. I do have one question though, I use Wolfgang sealant and top off with Pinnacle, I see you let this sit for 15 minutes or so. Pinnacle says apply and wipe right off while still wet, it never seems to dry, they are both caranuba. Should I try that with Pinnacle or keep applying and wiping right off? Probably a dumb question. Thanks

    I can only guess, but I think you meant to ask that on the other thread :shead:

    Just a gentle reminder since you may not want in the middle of cross fires:p:

    Sorry to bring back an old thread. But, its been awhile since I've been able to wash my car or much less wax it. Its probably been around five or six months since I last applied CR and its been through some extreme Louisiana heat and daily rain storms and it was still beading and sheeting nicely. I finally got around to wash and wax the car today and man it looks great.

    Thanks for posting. Sorry to see some negative feedback. Comes down to "if you have to ask"
    ;-) then keep it to yourself. Enjoy the car and the wax. Please post up some recent pics.

    Glad to hear it has good durability. Does your car stay in the garage or is it outside 24/7? If latter the durability is very impressive for a nuba or for any type of LSP.

    Yeah, some people on some of these forums seem to thrive on projecting their hate. The thing is that most of those people difne themselves by the things they've acquired. Problem with that is that they don't understand how to care for those things for what they are and not what it makes them or, what they think it makes them.

    Car looks good! I didn't read that you used the prewax.
