Zaino!

(you'll hear that a lot at Acura-CL.com)

The 'professional' Zymol is quite expensive. The Zymol you find in Target is not supposed to be better then Turtle Wax or other common brands.

Zaino gives a nice deep shine that is easy to apply and lasts.

Check out http://www.nsxsc.com/nsexcitement/waxtest.html for a neat comparison. Also check out some of the links at the top of the detailing forum.

From ahmotor an 8oz jar of Zymol is $35. The MSRP from Zymol is $50 for Zymol Japon. The NSX stuff is > $100!

Zaino 8oz of z1 + z2 is $8.95 + $12.95 = $21.90

I did something different! When I purchased my 2003 CL-S, I opted for "Tough Guard." You don't have to wax anymore and it's guarenteed for 5 years. I think I paid about $ 600. They claim it's great stuff and being as lazy as I am, I figured I would try it. So far it's been great. Even the splatted bugs and tar come off easier when I wash it.

Of course... That's what all the hardcore BlackFire faithful do.

I've heard great things about Blackfire. Unfortunately longevity is not one of them.

Zaino baby....
