Zymol Concours

What I do is to use latex gloves when I apply an EGZymol glaze. I do this so as to protect my surface from the chance of getting a marred mark from the scaley side of my hand or even from the tip of my fingernails. In the end it also is cleaner than doing it with your bare hands.

If you decide to use gloves, use latex and not rubber. Rubber clear gloves WILL marr your surface. Just a tip from an unfortunate experience, that luckily my PC resolved a year later!
 
Amazing how long this thread has been going. Has anyone tried it yet???

I am still waiting for a certain RED (zymol is like peanut butter and jelly on red..............hurry!!) jag to stop teasing us and try on a coat of Concours!!
 
i want it to stop teasing me. im almost in tears i want to try it so badly. The jag is in storage, but i am thinking of my freinds red miata, or my dads black park avenue (i love his paint), Exams are over, and i dont move till a week after i get back.
trust me i want to use the wax so badly but unforublty the oppertunity hasnt presented itself, and i dont plan on using the wax on any car.. its a little expensive for the likes of any car... or a students budget
 
I know its pricey. When I was going to school I had no idea that pure wax would cost the levels that Zymol and some others are asking. I thought once that 9.99 for a bottle of gliptone or mother's was high! Add to it, I did not have the material at that time (actually I did, my first car. I thought that it didn't have good paint so I used to wax it to death. In hindsight, it really needed a good polish prepping, which it never received.) to really experiment with waxes.

I think you have already found the product for you, Zaino. It seems to be filling your needs perfectly.

You may be correct but that does not mean that I should stop looking. If that were the case I probably would not have found Zaino and will definitely not find the "next" best thing. You need to keep an open mind and try everything if you are a true enthusiast like me.

Thats very true, i know i also have what works fo me, but i want to try other things "just in case" and becasue its fun. YOu seam to have a very open mind, have you tried Victoria wax- concours, if not you will be stunned at the deapth and clarity, its better then any sealent

No, but I have tried Souveran and Concours. Any better than those?

Wow I didn't realize they were based in North Branford...hmm thats only 30 minutes away. I wonder if they have a store there.

Anyone ever been there???

Yes, I've been there. At that time, the facility was just setting up a small store within the plant. Nothing to rave about, but that was several years ago.

This is getting to be a very long (and unfortunately very pointless) thread. To say that all carnaubas are the same or yeild the same results is false. Period.

I'll say this again (and will continue to say it until the point is crystal clear). The ONLY way that anyone can tell the difference is to do a physical comparison. There exists distinct finish characteristics between any given products. You also must compare and evaluate products in different lighting sessions. Indoor sessions may not give you a full view of a wax or lsp's color range. Indoor views with good halogen lighting can reveal underlying paint and surface issues, but you may not get the full spectrum of your wax's color range response without comparing it in different shades of natural lighting.

You will also need to compare reflective fidelity characteristics as well. This is one of the most distinguishable characteristics between lsps. Most waxes can give you a decent amount of sheen, but the differences will become apparent when you compare clarity, reflective range, and color responses between equally prepped surfaces with the same amount of competing waxes.

Most importantly, do not convince yourself that an lsp outperforms another lsp if you are pairing (as an example) a layer of pinnacle vs. a combination of layers of NXT and P21s, or 1,000 layers of Zaino (no flame intended) vs. a layer of Zymol Carbon. You want to see the integrity of one lsp vs. another at the same dosage. The wax that stands alone (all alone) is the one that justifies its price.

as sipply said. YES, the deapth and clarity is undeniable, it have used souran and was really disapointed after using vw. It is my standard when comparing other waxes.
I would say to give it a shot, you wont be disapointed
 
:dnaughty
I use zymol(carbon) on my black silverado, the stuff works very well, a lot of positive comments on the shine, have had no problems with it
