But anyway, what to you guys recommend??? I've been having my eye on that 5050/jetseal kit for a while (want that blue towel with red edges)...I've also heard great things about Lusso Oro...

I know you are a big fan of Souveran and use it so, those two probably wont impress you. The Lusso to me is close, but 5050 isnt anything special.

Oro is AWESOME! I haven't used 5050 but have used Pete's 53 and really like that. I have been told there's not a ton of difference between Pete's and 5050 so I would say go with Oro and Pete's if you want the CGs wax.

I have to say that the beading of the Pete's is a lot more wicked than the Lusso beading! BUT, the Lusso is easier to use and I'm not getting ANY hazing!!!

So... I have both!!!

How do you like Pete's 53??? I have quite a bit of waxes, and don't wanna try too many at once...

I have not used Lusso ..but have used 50/50 and Petes....and to me they are both nice waxes..Petes just beads so nice ..rain just flies off...to me its best used on dark solids and metal flakes....it does them justice..

50/50 is another good looker...50/50 has a deeper look than Petes .since Petes is a wax polymer combo product and 50/50 is a wax product...again..beads great..best on dark solids and metal flakes.....they do look good on light colors also..but they show the true looks on dark solid and metal flakes...also yellows...
