Yea, I also found the P21s was good (I thought) but didn't last very long at all. My polishing regime is 1st coat GLANZ (syn) then P21s for the extra shine - relied on GLANZ to give me the longevity.

Fritzables.
Concourse is my #2 favorite wax. PM me I have one for sale.

OE is better than JE, but OE is difficult to work with, both in application and removal. OE is much easier to work with and is still a GREAT wax.

Can you say Z-concourse is the poor man version of Vintage, is it save to say that concourse give you 90%-95% the depth, wet, glossy look of vintage?
I'd rather spend my money on Flex right now since my old hands is getting old for manual pre-wax cleansing step.
