Seems like there are a lot of high dollar waxes making an entry lately. I wonder if Steve at Poorboy's is working on a Richboy's version?

Being a Polymer mix it would be in the class of CG 50/50 which is a mix also....and for the money I would Buy the Swissvax Smagard..thats the wax so far showcased here that really caught my intrest....of all the high end waxes shown here ..that wax looked outstanding....

just wait till AG has a buy one get one free deal and it may be worth it then...

Yet another wax in this price bracket!!

Out of all the waxes I have tried in this price bracket (and beyond it), only one has made me want to buy another pot of it and that was Swissvax Best Of Show for adding a little extra wettness to the finish - the others just fail to justify their worth over cheaper counterparts such as Collinite 915 or Meguiars #16.

However - maybe this wax is different. It needs to be as in this price bracket, products are quite often bought on name and Wolfgang hasn't yet established itself as a premium wax maker in the way Zymol and Swissvax have. This is not to say the Wolfgang product is not as good, I bet it probably is, but whether or not it will compete in what is a very fashionable market remains to be seen... In the UK, I think it would struggle.

Yes, indeed I believe they are the same... Well, when I opened my tub of Best Of Show, a little ticket with Smaragrd fell out so I guess so!

Personally I dont think it will sell well on AG. The members who frequent AG typically dont drop money like that on "high end" waxes.

However, if this new WG wax looks like Souveran with better durability, IM THERE!

I don't understand the wooden box when the label and the pot looks cheap as all hell.

Poor marketing, sorry...
