    All part of advertising/marketing, I wish more company would promote/advertise there products more...nothing wrong with a healthy amount of competition, competition is great....well at least I think so :shrug:

    LOL...but honestly the prices of some these waxes is insane IMO. Honestly a G for an 8oz pot of wax???!!!! That in all honesty can be rivaled in both looks and durability by a wax 1/10th its cost (or less) why would you buy something like that other than to brag about it. I'll never understand it.

    ive said it before . my wife has a $400 dollar *(COACH) pocket book. and a $200 coach purse thats about 4 inches long . so thats $600 !!! for what??? the name!!!!!!its bragging rights!!! with me as far as buying waxes its purely because i love to try new carnuaba wax.
    and do i fall into fancy marketing and packaging?? sure .. we all do.. :thumb:

    Well my wife isn't into that high end fashion crap so I can't say hey WTF you have a $600 hand bag so I need a $600 wax. I'm just happy she's allowed me to amass the somewhat big collection of things I have.

    Poorboys Natty Red, limited edition they only make one batch a year and its only 22 bucks. Great durability, nice slick look & the only bad part about it is that you want to eat it since it smells just like strawberries

    At ~$15 a bottle I tend to stay with Collinite 845 Insulator Wax for friends/family etc. It doubles as a great winter wax so you'd be hard-pressed to find a reason not to have it in your arsenal. I haven't used their other types of wax yet. Right now I have a kind of odd combination of waxes on my car, mostly due to the fact that I wanted to try so many. The color of my car is Silver Frost Metallic. I have KSG, Collinite 845, topped with Natty's Paste Wax (Tan) and then covered in Finish Kare #425. I like the way it turned out, even thought I didn't really plan it.
