Not if you apply it very carefully. I use latex disposeable gloves on my detail and it works like a charm w/o marring. If you go with gloves, make sure they're latex or disposeable cotton, and NOT rubber or nylon or plastic (they marr like crazy...it has to be latex).

Re: I just ordered Vintage

wow i go out for one night with some friends and i come back to 3 more pages.. i hope i get it all..

first, tanks lbls1. I actully went to look at cars but shhhh...
lots of good info on zymol here. I think for now i will just use my block of ice.I have a feeling i will enjoy toting it around for the first little while.

as for my vintage not getting here. I orderd last week, but there was an issue that added 2 days, then they had to ship it from zymol to ocd then to me. Plus there is customs. Its not rare for an order to take 3-4 weeks to get here. Its just part of living here... im juts not looking forward to that damb customs bill

i wouldnt think so, you pay it on the purchase price. so if its free the other times... i think. i guees i should have looked into how they ship it. I guees they will put value 0 with 2g insurance... if that makes sence

Re: I just ordered Vintage

yeah i was thinking the same thing. this might sound crazy but i waxed my table today (painted) with ital and boy it does leave a nice look. The reflection was extremely sharp compared to nattys blue (yes i compared). Also had nice shimmer to it when looking at it from a angle

SO now i am going to wax the mdx today before i go watch the UFC fight. Only thing is I dont know if I am going to HDcleanse then wax or just wax over the zaino

hd-cleanse.. lbls has aid it before. Zymol needs to be enjoyed alone. It loosk great over somthing else, but it dosent have the same apotical effect. Just shine.

I would strip the zaino, apply the ital and see how it turns out.
Since you are trying to see how it looks, see how it looks alone. Its only fair
