im glad that it works for you.i wish i could turn my hobbies into ajob. But personaly i cant. There are many out there who can, im just not one of them
Maybe its just becasue of where i am at in life, or maybe its just my personality.. but i really do mean it when i say im glad that its somthing you do and enjoy.. there are not enough people in this world who enjoy what they do

Re: I just ordered Vintage

I just placed a big order too with OCD, I am a little worried also

If it comes through, I may order some vintage myself!

I have heard all these horor storries but have never had an issue. I have ordered a few times and never had somthing go missing, or come late.
And i actuly sent them an e-mail asking to add on insurance (turns out its included) but he e-mailed me back saying that my order was in, the insurance was in there and that he would let me know when its in the mail.. so we will see

Re: I just ordered Vintage

yeah i have been researching zymol for a while now I have zymol ital which i bought about 6 months ago only used it once but boy did it bead like crazy. it is hard cause i have a silver vehicle so it is tuff to make a big difference with that color

the ital i have is yellow nuba not white nuba like vintage so i am wondering if it makes a diff

I personally like zaino on lighter/metallics colors but i have tried a ton of things and for me zaino is the best

tho i have not tried vintage and only used ital once. Maybe i should HD cleanse and give it another shot

Re: I just ordered Vintage

vw is great. i love it, def worth a shot

as for the thread. some people can tell a diffrence. But I have heard that argument for everything. Some say there is no dif between duragloss and zaino, or WGDS and megs 16. some people cant pick up on it. nothing wrong with that, its just a fact of life. I have used zaino and dont like it. I have also used many carnubas and have love them. I find carnumba gives a glow that sealents dont.. its somthing I CAN SEE. not all people can.. but i feel i can.

and its not just about shine. its about the optical range, and life the wax gives the paint. its hard to explain for those who have fallen in love with zymol, please help me out.

its as though thr paint has changed and taken on a life of its own. Like it is alive.. warm and glowing.

Re: I just ordered Vintage

agreed on all fronts I have had about 10 diff LSPs on my truck and I have only had for about a year. I change about once a month I only had ital on her for about 3 weeks tho then went to souveran but imo that muted flake so i only use that on my accord

I hear u on a nuba it does have a life of its own when i started coming on here I didnt know the diff now i look at pics and can tell a nuba to a sealant.

I should go and work for zymol and make them sell the sample kit, I would be first inline

Re: I just ordered Vintage

Congrats on your purchase. And to think we were just talking about it. Let us know how you like it and if its worth it. I might just follow suit and pick some up myself.
