Its a nice wax, adds a little wettness to the finish - but durability I find from it is not great. If you can stretch toi the Saphir, its worth the extra IMHO as it has a slighter wetter look and lasts longer.

The Onyx is still a nice wax though, but I rate the combo of Clearkote Yellow Cream Wax and Clearkote Carnuaba Moose Wax above it as they too add a wet look nuance to the finish, but also last longer and are better value for money.

Saphir is the lowest I would start on the SV wax line.

Glasur on the Z line.

I have a feeling you might get a few reviews soon. I just got some and have not tried it yet. It smells nice

Look into Lusso or go for the Saphir.

Absolutely nothing beyond clever marketing. I happily use Glasur on a wide variety of paints, and it works great - doesn't have to be a Porsche. For the sake of LSP, paint is simply paint as you are just getting a product to sit on top and protect it. There's a lot of blurb with regard to paint specific waxes, but its just that - blurb.

If you want to try Glasur on your car, I certainly would - nice wax, if a little expensive for what it is.

I would have to agree with Dave on this one, Glasur says to to be used with Porche only but I've used it in various vehicles including Porche and it's a great wax on any vehicle.

Like Dave said not a cheap wax but it always delivers for me
