interested to hear your opinions on Vics collectors and concourse.
I really wanted to test the concourse for durability as I've done more of the car using it than I did collectors, but it was so nice to use and the look it gave, I ended with up applying 4 coats of concourse over the space of a week.
It was applied over a bse of lime prime that seemed to work well and give a lovely finish

^ you referring to concourse Toby?
I'm trialling both concourse and collectors at the moment and currently would say beading is equal from both compared to SN hybrid, but not quite as tight as AG hd wax

one day I might venture into such premium waxes but I'm a long way off yet, if the two vics waxes can handle 3months + I'd be quite happy. SN hybrid was a bit disappointing in terms of durability after all the hype, but maybe that was down to me
I have to be honest Dave 3 months is enough for any waxes... But the good waxes including cheaper and expensive waxes show how good they are by performing right up to the 3 months.
The sheeting of Glasur and Shield are simply on another level when compared with lesser waxes.
Gassing still gets my goat a little with Glasur but it's one of those things.

I'm using the 2 vics over lime prime and pretty pleased with the finish.
I feel 3 months is a reasonable request, although SN hybrid struggled IMO as I struggle to find time to completely strip and re-apply the hole car.
Just rembered, AF Passion wax gave a beautiful finish over tripple to my front bumper, really brought it back to life as with all the stone chips etc it looked quite dull and tired. beading us very impressive still. another wax and panel I'm testing. Currently have 6 different combinations on the car

i enjoy applying the wax so the durability isnt so much of an issue to me. but something is wrong here, i recieved my vics councours wax today opend it up and liquid spills out i look closely and theres liquid rissen to the top of the wax and it is very very soft basicly like mayonaise. is something wrong here?

Both my concourse and collectors were like this after I left them in the shed when it was hot. Let them cool down slowly then maybe stick it in the fridge for a few days and hopefully it should be OK, but they are VERY soft. Try and give it a quick mix prior to applying. This softness / wateryness allows it to spread a long way.
maybe a dodgy tub im sure il use it up but cant see it lasting half as long as my other tub

It won't set like a normal hard paste wax IIRC, it will always be very soft but hopefully a lot of the liquid will be re-absorbed
okay bud cheers for all the help bit dissapointed still but i shall see how well it lasts. dont think i will choose a soft wax again. im guessing the collectors wax isnt a soft wax then? as mine was nothing like this
Golf GT & A4 Avant
Both my collectors and concourse went like that, very much the same very soft waxes in my experience
strange how there completely different for me lol ahwell il use it up
I love when it's gasses and you have to buff it 3 times...
Just when you thought Glasur was bad and It couldnt get any worse....they created Supernatural. Must have 2/3 of a wooden tub left of that s**t.
