I have been told to talk to you lot about Zymol Wax. How good is it.... we are going to do a comparison on all the polish/waxes we can get our hands on from Autoglym to Zymol.

Any reviews or pictures gratefully recieved.

Thanks

I used Zymol Titanium on my Exige which was good.

Having to apply it by hand is a bit of a PITA and you have to do small sections at a time as you cant let it set.

Good stuff though it isnt cheap.

I know its not cheap....we are looking at becoming a retailer for the product but wanted to find out a bit more about it first so thought we would do some digging on some forums.

Zymol Glasur is the type specifically recommended for Porkers. I bought some when it was 50% at a former reseller a couple of months ago but haven't got around to trying it yet.

I did use to use Zymol Japon on my S2000 and it gave good results. Not sure it was any better than the other premium brands out there though (Swissol, Zaino and the like).

Personally, I've always tended to subscribe to the view that for the casual polishers (i.e those of us who aren't professional detailers a nd don't have the time or inclination to spend 12 hours on it at a time), any decent quality wax/polish product will yield decent results and the difference between them probably has more to do with the preparation before you use them and the amount of elbow grease you're prepared to invest in the process.

I've been very impressed with Zymol Glasur wax (also bought cheaply) - I did my c4s with it a few months back, this photo was taken a couple of days ago and several washes after the waxing..

I use Zaino and have for about 7 years..easier to use and cheaper than zymol(and better imo).

I'd agree with the "preparation is everything" mantra.

I had my black 996 professionally detailed and waxed with Swissvax stuff as I had no desire to get all the kit e.t.c and ruin my paintwork.

Now, I simply wash with a proper wash-mit and the "two-bucket" method, dry with a decent towel and use Victoria Concours wax. Takes about an hour, and looks amazing.
