Hey guys (just thought i'd start a new thread on this new subject) WAXING. When I first got my 03 TL-S I used mother's spray wax. Then i heard of something called Zymol. My friend told me that they use it on ferraris and bentleys and it's supposedly the best wax. So i gave it a try. I spent $100 including shipping on a starter kit for my car which gives you everything you need. The story behind zymol is it protects and i think bonds to the paint or clearcoat and gives the best shine possible. You pretty much only need the bowl of wax ($40) which is enough for at least 20 waxings (trust me the stuff covers a lot), and the "pre-wax" (called HD-Cleanse) for about $32 (for the big 32OZ). All the instructions come with it and it's really a blast to do. Afterwards, you'll see results that are unbelievable. I'd post pics of my car....i should actually do that seeing as i have a camera. Just lemme know if you want pics (it's raining today i'll try and get some tomorrow). Thanks for reading and tell me what you think.

fire some pics out...

I have obviously heard of Zymol, but now am working with P21S, Klasse, Meguiars NXT, and other meguiars products.. I would be interested in some pics, but the pics will really show off the polish not the wax.. Polish = shine/reflection/depth in colour and Wax = durabilitry..

I have a ton of new products in the mail right now, from gallons of lexon to 5 gal. of high class professional tire dressing.. so my next order won't be for a while but I will NEVER put down a product until I have either tried it. for example the new turtle wax platinum, I personally wouldn't buy it for a "high quality" wax job, but I won't put it down.. I'm sure a miltimillion dollar company like turtle wax wouldn't make a garbage product, but there is a good chance it is inferior to the products I currently use. So. until I hear convincing evidence about the quality of Turtle Wax platnum line I don't plan on buying it.. If I hear good things, I would try it out, some waxes work better on different colours and some work better on different types of paint surfaces.

 

I've used all of the zymols except for the most expensive one and IMO it's not worth the money. They make good products, but are way overpriced compared to the competition. If you have the cash to spend, it's a good buy, unfortunately i'm a broke college student

 

I think Shawn744 is the official spokesman for Zymol, lol. Glad to see you are enjoying their great line of car care products...

Zymol, use to be the elite wax product, but others have now come to the forefront with much better offerings.....I agree with Cl 100%......Platinum, Blackfire, Wolfgang, Klasse, Poorboys, and Clearshine products are hard to beat for the money...

 

Are you talking about Turtle Wax Platinum? really??

 

No! actually its Four Star Platinum......

 

Zymol is still a great real wax, the others are synthetics.

 

oh thank god!! I thought you were actually using that crap.

Personally I have the P21S carnuba Wax. I find it is a really high quality wax. But as pure carnubas are typically the shortest lifespan of all the different waxes/sealants, one to three months.. I will be using the Klasse Twins on my car next..
