    Just a quick add-on: If Ben wanted to generate awareness/personal gain, he could told us a similar marketing driven tale about a special transparent carnauba only he can manufacture - for US$100.000 per tub. Dunno, but I received a different message from his posts.

    Sorry, but who`s Will? Is he in this thread?

    Not sure what happened between pages 6 to 12 but it was informative benvegas. Didn`t know there was so much marketing hype and all that.

    SD, in your previous most in this thread on page 11 you chastised someone else for what you perceived as a lack of professionalism. Please keep this advice in mind. It`s obvious this thread has tested the patience of the mods and there`s no reason to start in with attacks such as this.



    Also, if you go back and read what Wise 85 had to say in this thread, he praised the quality of Zymol EGs. Most everyone would agree they have an impressive marketing machine. Yes Swissol also has top-tier waxes, but I don`t believe there`s any credible basis for an accusation such as you just made. If it were true, I have no doubt the "Zymol marketing machine" would send their legal hounds on the case.

    lol Don`t be so hasty to "chastise" yourself. That was a joke. I use Swissol and like it. I am not after Bence for his comment. Maybe I should have used a smily or something to help you clarify.

    I just figure everyone knows about the "accusation" you say I made. You know swissol got sued for trademark, trade dress, and copyright infringement by Zymol don`t you?



    Not attacking or chastising. You however are at this moment. You should have sent this to me via PM and we could work it out. No need for these kind of posts in threads. You might want to delete. Thanks

    AFAIK, the original plans of a second elite wax company was originated in the office of a certain Chuck, but someone has to ask a guy named Camarda as well. (with disclaimer)



    But among others, the Bennett (not Chuck ) Formulary Series reveal the true basics of carnauba manufacturing.

    As for being sued, big companies love doing that all the time.

    In all seriousness, why should this thread "die?" Contrary to popular belief, there are *some* useful information to be gleaned amidst all this smoke in mirrors or "grandstanding," if you will.



    If anything could be said from/about this thread is that *true colors* are starting to surface.
