Lifetime refills free of charge. Better own a lot of cars and love waxing them!

its naturally curly......
The zymol wax I had a play with ( Concours ) is a VERY nice wax, the hand application isnt as bad as you'd think ( actually quite theraputic! ), but it can be a bit of a bear to remove, you have to apply a fair bit more pressure than I was comfortable with. Add to that it requires multiple buffings and it can be both fiddly and time consuming......
From what I have been told, it is not the most durable wax getting around, somewhere on the week or so mark depending on whether it is garaged or not etc - this is second hand and not from experience. The fact that the warmth of your body softens its so dramatically for application means I dont doubt this source of info. IMO it is a pretty fragile wax.
It is best suited to those in concourse events who dont care about durability or wasting a bucket of cash IMO. In most respects I think my S100 is on par with it, and having just recieved my Souveran, I am mighty excited! :xyxthumbs

Quote: but I do know that Zymol is close to introducing a new "just for Porsche wax". Can't imagine what price they will be asking for a few precious ounces of the New Porsche 911 Estate Glaze.
~One man’s opinion / observations ~
Paints from different (Dupont, PPG, etc) manufacturers do not favour one wax over another; there is no factual basis for a special wax or sealant formulated for a specific vehicle model, nor custom coloured waxes with pigment dyes to mach original paint.
As for the price of Zymol ‘custom’ waxes at $1,000+ if you pay $1M + for a vehicle does it really matter how much you pay for a wax? Zymol’s market is a concourse entrant so the price of their waxes is not that important to their customers.
