Souveran over Klasse AIO

Link

Nearly fifteen years! That's how long we've been using and recommending Klasse products. Over the years, we've gotten to know the Klasse people very well. Unlike our domestic, multi-national, mega-conglomerates, Klasse is a small family company. They're the kind of people you have over for hamburgs on the grill or a homemade pizza. Just down-to-earth, nice folks.

We were the first to recommend putting Pinnacle Souveran paste wax over Klasse All-In-One to deepen the shine. At first, Klasse considered this a sacrilege! They couldn't accept putting any (shudder) "wax" over their product. As the years passed, their attitude changed from contempt, to tolerance and, finally, to acceptance. (On a recent visit, the head of Klasse asked for some Souveran paste wax for his personal vehicle!)

I mention this because Souveran-over-Klasse is now the newly discovered, in vogue combination being touted by enthusiasts. Unfortunately, our original system got misinterpreted at some point and people are recommending a procedure that isn't optimum. (Remember, we've been doing Souveran-over-Klasse for over ten years!)

To set the record straight, we created this Klasse-Pinnacle Kit, the system that started it all. Despite its age, this combination is still considered by many perfectionists to be the best car care system on the planet.

The foundation of our system is Klasse All-In-One, Germany's best one-step cleaner/polish/protectant. All-In-One removes surface films, old wax and light oxidation yet bonds to the surface like a wax. It doesn't penetrate or change the paint in any way but it leaves a mirror-like, acrylic shine. This finish also resists UV deterioration, pollution and acid rain but this is a side benefit. In our system, All-In-One is used as a gloss producing polish.
To apply All-In-One, we're including a Microfiber Applicator Pad and a spray bottle of Eagle One Wet Wipe N'Shine. This is a little trick we learned that makes All-In-One application a breeze. Lightly mist the applicator pad with Wipe N'Shine and apply a dab of All-In-One, about the size of a nickel. Apply to one section of the car at a time (i.e. a door, 1/2 of the hood, etc.). You'll notice that it wipes on easily (thanks to the lubricating action of the Wipe N'Shine) and leaves virtually no residue. When you're done with one section, re-wipe the area with a clean Viper Microfiber Detailing Cloth to remove any residues.
Continue walking around the vehicle doing one section at a time. Use a light mist of Wipe N'Shine and a small dab of All-In-One to do each section of the vehicle.

If possible, let the car set overnight to give Klasse time to bond. I have waxed over Klasse immediately but I always felt I obtained better results giving the All-In-One time to set up. Do not use Klasse's companion product, High Gloss Sealant Glaze. While Pinnacle Souveran paste wax is magical over All-In-One, it doesn't like the Sealant Glaze. Waxing over High Gloss Sealant Glaze can produce hazy patches or ghosting.

After you've allowed the All-In-One time to set up, its ready for the finishing touch, Pinnacle Souveran paste wax. Respected by show car owners and enthusiasts nationwide, Souveran has set a new standard for depth and richness. Souveran's blend of super refined Brazilian Ivory Carnauba and natural oils enhances all colors but is stunning on black, red and dark color paints.
Used as a top coat over Klasse All-In-One, it darkens the shine, adding tremendous depth and liquidity.

Like All-In-One, Souveran is applied to one panel at a time. Mist the yellow foam applicator with Eagle Wet Wipe N'Shine and wipe a thin layer of wax on the surface. (The thinner the better.) It wipes on like butter. Hard rubbing is not required. Wipe off immediately with a clean Viper Microfiber Detailing Cloth. There is no waiting for the wax to dry and no chalky residues to buff off. Simply walk around the car wiping wax on and buffing it off. I can wax my entire car in less than 20 minutes with Souveran.

Wait, you want more? Here's one more trick but it's completely optional. This is for the absolute perfectionist. Allow Souveran to set overnight and give the vehicle a second coat of Souveran wax. If you have a black, red or dark color vehicle, you'll see the finish get darker and deeper with this second application. Sorry, you can't apply the second coat immediately. You won't get the same results. The first coat needs to cure overnight.
That's our system and we know of more than one show car owner that uses this exact procedure.

Instructions

Plus, I'm including a bonus. Free!
All-In-One and Souveran will keep your car protected for months but normal driving can diminish that illusive sparkle. To restore that "just-waxed" shine, I'm including a 16 oz. spray bottle of Pinnacle Crystal Mist and a third Viper Microfiber Detailing Cloth!

Use Crystal Mist after washing or anytime to remove harmful, wax-eroding contaminants and restore the depth and clarity of a just-detailed finish.
Crystal Mist is not a quick-shine, silicone spray. Every time you use Crystal Mist, you apply a micro-fine layer of protection. Used once a week, Crystal Mist can extend the life of initial wax coatings to six months or more.

All in all, this is over $135.00 worth of great, easy-to-use products. I hope you enjoy my system,

Customer comments:

"I just applied Klasse All-In-One and Pinnacle Souveran wax to my 1963 Impala Super Sport. The red paint on my car was so dull that I considered using a rubbing compound but decided to just start with your Klasse-Pinnacle combination. I was astonished with the finish. The shine is absolutely amazing. It was well worth the $100. for the Klasse-Pinnacle Kit to get a "million dollar shine".

People comment about the car wherever I go. The previous owner of the car at first thought it was not the same car but now is sure it was repainted! Friends and neighbors say there is no way I did the wax job by hand... it had to be professionally detailed. Perfect strangers are constantly taking pictures of the car at gas stations, grocery stores and even in my driveway."
