Moe, I would really like to hear about your application techniques/insight on HD Cleanse/Destiny Combo.
Also, what is your observation on longevity on the cars you have Destinied?
Tks in advance and welcome.

As we all know, the prep work is the most important step. Claying is pretty much simple; use the most gentle clay to get the paint as smooth and quiet as possible. Then you can assess do what degree the finish needs correction. If all the prep work is done to your specs, then here my Zymol routine. You HD medium sections at a time; I do the whole hood, and the front bumper and fenders. It's ideal to be working indoors at a temp. no lower than about 60-65. I put about a quarter sized dollup of HD on the Zymol pre-wax applicator and rub in a linear motion. You apply a medium amount of pressure until most of the HD is worked into the paint. I then remove HD using the Zymol Terry. Once the whole car is HD Cleansed, I apply the wax. If I use Destiny, I take about a peanut size amount and warm it in my palms. My palms become oily and I then massage it into the finish. Once again, in linear motion. Don't worry about coverying all the panel. Even if there are areas that are not greasy, rather glossy, when you wipe off the wax, you even things out. I let Destiny sit for about 2 min. I then gently wipe off the wax letting the microfiber do all the work. After about a 1/2 hour I Field Glaze the car and that's it. You can apply another layer of wax in about 6 hours. By the 3rd layer, the finish takes on a whole new look and level of protection. If the car is garaged and properly maintained, Destiny should last about 4-6 months. Hope this helps.

Tks. That is what I was looking for. Hv you applied HD by machine or always by hand?

MoeMistry · 05-01-07, 10:33

HD is designed to be used by hand only

I'd love to get an inside line on getting some of these high-end Zymol waxes.

You guys know of any discounts or the cheapest place to get these?

Moe do you apply all the Zymol waxes by hand the same way?

joshtpa · 05-01-07, 10:37

ocdgarage i believe is having a sale on them.

velobard · 05-01-07, 11:23

MM, have you used Zymol Titanium? With the other Zymol products I already have I don't anticipate buying it anytime soon, but I am curious about it. How does it compare in appearance and durability with the other Zymol offerings, both the cheaper ones and the more expensive EGs?

Nica · 05-01-07, 06:07

I was looking at pics of Paul Dalton use his Royal with a applicator he stated to me on detailing world that using a app is a better way to apply estate. I have ital but I am not sure how i should apply it

What I like about Zymol is the prices are set. You cannot sell below MAP. If you find prices below what's on Zymol's website, then the authorized reseller will get his license pulled. Anything above Titanium should be applied by bare hand.
