Default Pinnacle Souveran over Four Star UPP

Well the UPP has been holding up extremely well since getting the new ride in August. So as promised I decided to add only a topper. To my delight, I had forgotten just how easy it was/is to use Souveran. 15 minutes later she was done .....



sorry for the reflection of the tree's on the hood, darn parks have so little area that would not reflect off the finish

That looks great! What are you using on your wheels?

Also, being down in FL, how long do you expect the Souveran to last? I did the Klasse/Souveran on my wife's daily driver and it *appeared* that the Soveran was gone in no time.

I have never had any streaking issues with Souveran. A couple of sealants have but usually quickly gone with a damp wipe. Usually means it was put on to heavy. I always use foamy applicators from Cobra, and buy them by the dozen.

As for durability, in South Florida I would expect 4 weeks from Souveran maybe six maximum. That said, it is important to wash with Pinnacles Wash (it does not strip the wax like some sealant washes do) and use Crystal Mist after each wash. Car is also garage kept at night, but a daily driver.

If the car consistently looks like this, then I am willing to give it 15 minutes each month, heck I would probably commit to it bi-weekly. The UPP underneath should also help with durability but probably will be stripped and redone around end of the year. Xmas gift to my car
