The spelling and grammar are awesome in those posts!

I only say this because I think some of your posts are too antagonistic.

Do you really want Swissvax or not? Its only $250 for Concorso, order it and post an opinion. If your wife gives you sh*t about a $250 purchase, try lying about what you make. It works in my house.

I doubt anybody on this forum could pick one out from another if we were to do each panel with a different Swissvax or Zymol. The looks are VERY VERY similar IMHO. Remember, it is 85% prep work and 15% your LSP choice. I have tried this test with my wife using Pinnacle Souveran, Zymol Concours and Zaino Z5p and she or I was never able to see any noticable difference. As long as it is a high end product and they all are they will look awesome. Now throw some Butter Wax into the mix and it is a different story.

This is one of the biggest problems with judging products by pictures on the internet. Do you really think you are able to tell the differences on panels between Turtle Wax, Vintage, Divine, or whatever.

All you have to do is tweak the lighting and play with the pics and anything will look good.

This is the problem with people jumping on the "Product Bandwagon" or the "Product of the Month".
