Anyone ever tried Zephyr products?

I have seen a few mentions of the Zephyr metal polish on here and got some and really liked it better than any others I had seen before. So the next time I ordered anything from them I also got a small bottle of their vinyl protectant which is called Pro39. Of course they claim it is better than 303 etc. I tried it and so far I like it. It has a nice matt finish that doesnt seem to attract dust but of course I have no real scientific way of evaluating its UV claims. Its pretty pricey but compared to 303 its about the same.



But the real find with them was their spray/detail wax. PRO-33 SPO-DEE-O-DEE. It has a stupid name and I dont even know the right way to pronounce it. But anyway I tried it on part of my daily driver truck this weekend and after that one use I was really impressed. It sprayed on and wiped off easily with no streaks but the thing I liked most was the feel of the paint afterward. The truck had not been waxed or clayed in a month of so, and had some typical grit in the paint. But after one spray and wipe down that fender felt as if I had just clayed and waxed it. I dont yet know what the durability is like but I dont use spray detailers for durability so it doesnt really matter so much to me. It is labeled as having carnuba in it so I dont expect it to be a super long life product.



So far I am pretty happy with both of these even though I had never heard of Zephyr before seeing them on here. Anyone else tried their stuff?
 
I agree with Brandon1 on the metal polish - it sure saved my butt when I had a slight diaster with Wheel Bright on a painted wheel.
 
I like the wolfgang polishes, very nice stuff. but Zyphr is great, inexpensive and really a great polish. It will do all you n eed and more IMHO
 
I have tried the Zephyr pro 40 "perfection metal" liquid polish on bare aluminum rims (semi-truck) just as a spot to test it and the results were pretty impressive.



This is a coal-haul truck so it sees some heavy abuse, even though it gets washed daily (after nearly 1,000 miles and 24 hrs of running time). As you would guess they see the normal chemicals that any heavy duty mine truck would and the rims had seen some heavy oxidation and neglect (from fomer drivers, it's part of the company fleet after all).



I am going back today to do some agressive paint correction and polish as well as polish all the metal on the truck so I will post results and products used later. One quick note that should be made: the "perfection polish" has very little to no cutting ability, which makes it great as a final step or for only minor correction but will need prior work for heavier damage correction
