Zaino or P21
I've used neither Y E T. Has someone out there used both, or a couple in their "high-end" products; if so how do they compair ?
Convince me I need to spend the Extra--and i'm not just looking to wax my car to get that "zesty" smell up my nose !

Okay, I finally read their 'top 4 wax shootout:"
and indeed they are doing longevity tests.
They are going to do extended test between the top two synthetics, and the top two carnunba waxes.
This would be: P21S Carnauba vs Meguire's Medallion vs
Klass Concours vs Zaino.
They also confessed that when they first tried Zaino they put way too much on, and it futzed up their initial tests, hence the low
C rating.

Depends on what you want. I have used various waxes, and some of them are comparable to each other with minimal differences.
I have tried the Mother and Meguiar 3 steps and both turned out well. The shine is very nice, but not too sure about how well they last as I didn't pay attention to that piece of detail. I got a lot of looks after the 3 steps. It isn't easy to apply because the waxes are thick, and on dark cars you will see residue.
Tried Zaino this summer and the shine is very nice. Turned my 2.5 year old black car into a mirror. There are a few steps involved, and initially it will take a few hours. After the first couple applications you would not need to do all the steps and it becomes easier. The stuff smell nice, and is easy to apply. I can still go for a workout after waxing
. After a few applisations I still have a lot left in the bottles. I never enjoyed washing and waxing before, but this summer I found myself waking up at 7am on the weekend to wax. Crazy or what. Price-wise the products are not cheap, but I like them.
There might be waxes that takes less time or steps, and for sure many waxes are cheaper. Depends what you want. Some people want a one step wax that takes little effort and last 40 washes. Does that exist? Who know?!
