Default Zymol Car Wax?

Has anyone ever used this stuff? It is a babyblue colored wax with a healthy little price tag on it. Just curious.

Thanks in advance,

Micah

I haven't used it, but if you use the search feature above and type in Zymol there are a lot of posts where this has already been talked about.

I used the Concours and thought it was more trouble than it was worth. It did look good but was a pain in the butt to apply and remove and did not have the durability as Zaino does.

Supposedly there are different versions of Zymol available. I have tried the OTC version available at AutoZone, etc. Great shine that lasted all of one week - literally. While I'm a die-hard Zaino fan, I found Meguiar's Deep Crystal MUCH better than Zymol.

I took the plunge and coughed up the $$......my opinion??? Not worth the price. I was not impressed, did not come off well, left a residue smear on my paint....and didnt shine that impressively ... ya know on the "hingle"they are asking for the stuff. I got a much better result from Mothers Carnauba.

The Blue paste that you can't get OTC is Zymol Carbon (for dark colors). Zymol Creme for light colors. I used it on my other cars for years and really liked it along with the HD Cleanse. I have since changed but thought it was a good product.

I've been using Zymol Carbon on my C6 and the shine is outstanding. Holds up to weekly washes and always looks wet. For my personal preference, excellent product.

I used to use Zymol Carbon on my Black 67 Mustang and I loved it, easy on and off. Very similar to Pinnacle in that aspect. Protection my not be as good as others but it's a good product. The good line is not available at local auto stores.
