    How do you pronounce `Klasse?`

    I`ve called it "Claus" "Class" "Classay" and just about every other thing you can think of. But what is the correct way to pronounce `Klasse?` I am not familiar with the german language to I simply don`t have a clue.

    its actually pronounced "Class-uh". I`ve heard it pronuonced that way by several distributors including David Bynon and Dwayne McPeeks. David would be one I trust on that one. He loves all things German.

    My understanding is that it is pronounced "clah-sah".

    wow I would have never guessed that! With all the thousands of things I`ve called it over the years, Ive never called it that. Thanks for clearing that up for me. It was driving me crazy that I don`t know what to call it. Its kind of a strange question to ask but I been wondering for too long.

    Its actually a common question. Its been asked several times on Autopia and even a couple over here. Some people call it `Class`, but the people who know best are the ones who sell it for a living.

    Klasse (pronounced Klas-uh). It is a German product that has been rated as one of the best polishes on the market. I use it all the time..............

    I didn`t have much luck with the Klasse twins.

    You don`t want to know how I pronounce it.
