Zymöl Vintage... what do you charge?

[Apollo_Auto]

Hi all! Just received my Vintage (cheers Greg!) in the mail today and was curious... what do you charge for a layer of it?

Bumpity, bump! Anyone??

IIRC there is a thread on this, or similar asking about charging more for estate waxes. I`m not sure though so don`t quote me on it. Congrats on your purchase

Cheers Jay, I`ll do another search :)

I just tried as well but couldn`t find anything.

I don`t have Vintage but I charge more for Concours. I add 50 to use that applying by hand.

Don`t know if it`s hogwash or not but I`ve read that upcharging for Vintage is a no-no unless you are a Z certified detailer since it`s refillable and all.



Anyhow... nice buy

IM not sure what i would up charge considering this stuff is $2100.00 lol I wa thinking about this. How much have i spent on wax just in the last six months? now if they are gonna refill your tub for life. andd your customers are gonna know that they have a 2000.00 dollar wax on there car. this is actually a great investment. I`m curious on the whole refilling process. oh yea jesse you`ll be jerkin real soon!

Wohoo! Thanks bud!

A local detailer adds on an extra $250 for using it, according to posts I`ve read

Why upcharge? I`d be using it up as fast as possible and getting it refilled.

[imported_Jakerooni]

What`s the Durability of it? If it last longer than most waxes I can see the upcharge for the extra durability. But if it dosen`t add something to the mix outside of saying I have a brand name on the paint I`m not entirely sure an upcharge is warrented especially if it`s free refills for life because it`s really not costing you anything more to put it on. But for that price I just have to assume it does something better than regular $30 waxes.

Never good point Jake.

You can charge whatever you see fit,but unless you are a Zymol licenced detailer i would not fancy your chances of getting your container refilled when it empties.

Very tight beading, but in the sheeting category Primo takes the cake :)

OK but would you buy a pot of it and put it on a Fiesta and a Ferrari and charge them the same price? Don`t forget the refills aren`t actually "free". I think it costs about $400 for shipping, admin, etc. so basically the big "Z" is getting your money again...

Not sure about the durability of it, but I`m sure it`s got to be longer than the average wax on the market. I mean other than putting an absurd price tag on it they must have something other than a swanky box to justify the price, no? See above comment to Bob about "free" refills :). Also, don`t forget that there`s millions of people out there that still think a Breitling tells time better than a Casio... these are the people I intend to market with this...

Duly noted, cheers for the head`s up ;) (heard that elsewhere too). BUT, for the money that one could possibly make even at a modest upgrade charge with one 22 oz. pot of the "Z"... Let`s look at it this way: I can wax (rough estimate) 40 cars with one 200ml tub of wax. 1 tub of this stuff=130 cars... I think one could afford to live without refills :).
