Read the label on a bottle of Zymol wax yesterday. Don't need any wax just yet. I haven't met anyone that has used the product.
Bought a bottle of Ibiz wax six weeks ago. Pricey and a bit of a pain to apply but seems to perform well.

zymol has many many many different varieties available (most from distributors or online). the zymol cleaner wax you see at wal-mart and target is the bottom feeder of their line. i haven't used any of their high quality products, but many speak highly of them.

put the $7 towards a bottle of Duragloss 105 TPP sealant. much better than that cheap Zymol wax and far more durable.

zymol wax ranges from a 10 dollar bottle to 6000 bucks for 621g of wax.
Zymol is well known for car wax. you could easily get the watered 'liquid' wax from walmart or autozone. I bought one bottle last week, gonna try it next weekend

I'll vouch for Zymol. I've used the light blue colored bottle on my black BMW for 8 years. It's my favorite out of all the products you can get at pepboys. Haven't used it on my TL-S yet, but plan to when I have time.

you can't comment on Zymol by using the one that you used. you can't even imagine how much better the Zymol waxes are by using the OTC Zymol. just get Meg's NXT, that will perform a lot better then the cheap Zymol you used for 8 years. Or get Zymol Carbon...which is where the Zymol wax starts with decent performance.

I used the light blue zymol for 5 years. I applied it regularly on my Infiniti I30. The shine is decent but doesn't last that long. It smells good and might taste great j/k

The wax by itself is mediocre, but when you use a polish before waxing, the results are 10x better. The color is more brilliant and the car has a "wetter" look. Look into getting a polish before waxing. Yeah, it's twice the work, but worth it!

I recently switched to Zaino and used ZAIO, Z2Pro, ZCS and Z8. The shine is great and it's incredibly smooth. I can't say it's the best because I've only tried zaino and zymol, but I'm please with the results.

Bingo. Personally, i wouldnt spend more then $25-$30 tops for a bottle of synthetic.....
I tried the Zymol cleaner/wax about 10 years ago, and never ever bought another Zymol product again.........But to each their own folks! As long as your using something, thats what counts....

that $7 bottle (or $9 canadian) of Zymol is actually a turtle wax product, their premium stuff (Carbon glaze/ Cream glaze) is a completely different product!!

I personally like Zaino, but on some colors, Pinnacle Sovereign Carnuba is my favorite. Zymol is my least favorite, but I've never used the $2000/bottle/crystal bottle stuff. WAY OVERPRICED IMHO.

I use Zymol Concours, (about $170) and Zymol Japon (about $60) on my TL... You just need to HD Cleanse the car first and you are good to go.. I will never use any other wax ever again.. It is so smooth it melts in your hand like butter,,,

Here are 2 pics aftert the full detail with Zymol Concours applied 100% by hand no applicator...
