Anyone tried both?
I'm getting to the end of my first tub of Zymol Ital wax and am shopping around to see if I go for the same again or if there is anything else just as good or better + plus cheaper.

Have a look at Roops profile www.pistonheads.com/members/showProfile.asp?memberId=287 he got a load of Zymol products to use on the RS 500 as they were recommeneded by the guys doing concourse.

I have used Zymol & it is very good, but since using P21S from the polishing company I would not use anything else. It is eaiser to apply gives a good long lasting finish & is about half the price.

Haven't tried either but I second the recommendation of P21S:

I bought the Zymol Sampler kit which seemed like very good value. You get three tubs of glaze (I got Titanium, Concours and Destiny) a detailer brush, microfibre cloth, a bottle each of HD Cleanse and Clear. Now, each of the tubs of glaze are half the size of regular 'non sampler' Zymol tubs. Bear in mind that regular size Titanium is £65 a tub, Concours is £145 a tub and Destiny is £450 a tub then you are in essense getting £330 worth of glazes, £20 worth of HD cleanse, £20 worth of Clear a £5 cloth and a detailer brush plus a case to put them all if for £145. Seems like a good deal so I got it.

I got extra HD cleanse and a spritzer spray of Field Glaze as well. There's a 2 year supply there for under £200 of some of the best glazes you can get. I believe Concours which is the one I have used so far is 60% Carnauba of which a high percentage is the rather expensive white carnauba. It's hard work to use (took me 7 hours to detail the RS 500) but the results are amazing. I did a review for the PH review section.

When it all runs out, I'll have a pop at something else just to see what it's like.

Thanks.

The first photo is just a wash and then wax, the second was a wash, polish and wax. Only used one application of polish and one of wax. It says you can use 4 applications of polish and 2 layers of wax. (P21S concours carnauba wax and Gloss Enhancing Polish)

Have tried zymol Carbon Wax and it is brill. However, am now using Maguiars NCT Wax which is equally as brill, but a third of the price. And it's easier to use. Peter

Megiuars is ace. Easy to get on/off and I can't tell the difference between it and the expensive stuff.
