Fusso soft 99 is a great wax - fantastic hydrophobic results, great protection qualities and bang for buck. We use it for a lot of cars. But the list of negatives is as follows:
[/quote]
- Application is not the easiest - depending on temperature, quantities, application pad etc. creates a complete different experience. It comes with a foam pad, but I wouldn't use that - I tend to use a general fibre buffing pad to apply, leave a few minutes to cure and buff off with a decent microfibre, high gsm, towell.
- It doesn't provide the most glossy of finishes - I get around this by layering - waxes can be layered. Combining this with a 'cheaper', more glossy wax is a great shout and is easily maintained. EZCarcare have a lovely liquid wax called 'Chrome' which we tend to double up with fusso with some jobs.
- It's a pain when it hits those cracks - you only need small amounts, but even still, with most hard waxes, when applied to vehicle can get stuck into cracks and crevices - again, my solution is to cotton buds to remove excess.
As for the light/dark wax - i've no idea what they're playing at - used both and swapped on various vehicles and vice versa - I can't tell the difference - similar in price so go for whichever.
It's a great wax if you're a novice or experiementing - not too expensive, easy to use (in small areas at a time) and great results - Go for it!
This is the exact response I was hoping for...
Basically the whole fusso dark and fusso light wax is just a gimmick to increase sales? I was planning on doing my car which is light blue, my mothers which is black and my step fathers which is white... Just didnt know if it would be a problem with the black paint?
I'm hoping I still have the nack of polishing cars as I went from dark blue to silver and lost the love of polishing when I brought a s****y 307...
I was told about another wax this morning that Fusso do which is Authentic if you've ever heard of it? Whats it like as a finish?
Thanks for the reply, I'll probably buy it on friday unless someone can sway my temptation...
