Re: I just ordered Vintage

Out of curiosity what happens if in a few years Zymol (or some other company) comes out with some newer, greater product that renders this obsolete in comparison? Does Zymol offer a trade-up program?

I think they have products above Vintage.

ZYMOL ROYALE GLAZE 44 oz - Zymol Worldwide

SOLARIS - Zymol Worldwide

Re: I just ordered Vintage

I wouldn't consider a new zymol as making its other waxes obsolete. You have to remember that these wax models are outrageously priced, so upgrading is entirely dependent on your financial situation. As long as what you purchased has brought satisfaction, as well as an assurance that your result is/was well above your expectations should be enough to keep you entertained.

It was hard enough justifying the cost factor with Vintage.....but considering the overall cost as a zymol user, the purchase made sense to me.

Now if you want to fly down here and put the RX-7 back together for me....But if I had you around I wouldn't need my own Vintage
*Heh heh*....almost missed this cute little get-back. Shhhhh...not so loud Accumulator......others might get ideas lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Heh heh, if I ever get any of my Vintage-worthy vehicles ready for LSP, I just might ask Accumulatorette to get me some for a present It's hard for her to find "big ticket" gifts for me as I generally buy myself whatever I want long before she even knows about it. She might like an opportunity to get me something special in this area and, heh heh, the scoffers can't exactly flame me for wasting money if it's a way for my wife to do something thoughtful

Well...........looks like you're on your way. Even Accumulatorette wouldn't mind that you would get vintage!! Sounds like you may have a bit of negotiation in store........

J/k.....but it would be great just to see your reaction to Vintaaaaghhhhe on optimal paint.........even if its on a 4+ pooch carrier. BTW: Pooches in your vehicles.........??? I love Dogs, but Dog hair in a good interior........a No No according to Lbls1's Cardinal Rules

*Heh Heh* definitely gotta scat now lol!!!!!!

Heh heh, you'd never know they were dog-haulers, and we even hauled the (now deceased) previous primary K9 in the Audis (can't do his job if he isn't there ). Dog hair...Ha! Even when I had German Shepherds I kept on top of that

OK, OK, sorry to go so far off-topic

Well, that gets back to my same ol' problem...all my vehicles have paint that's sorta (IMO) FUBAR for one reason or another, despite my efforts. I just dunno whether they'd be worth EGing... and anyhow what if I (being wacky and highly opinionated) just didn't like how it looked on the Jag

If I had something like your f-body that'd be different; likewise if I had the M3 (love that color...) entirely reshot I'd Vintage *that* too, but I think I'm only gonna have the overly-rotaried panels reshot and then sell it...we'll see.

By the time we get sick of having the same conversation perhaps I'll make up my mind The rest of the world must be utterly about our exchanges
