I currently use Zaino AIO on my yukon. Im looking to switch to either the Zymol Titanium or the swissol Onyx. has anybody experienced using either of these products/ what were your thoughts? Pics?
 
I have used both and for the price (and much less) there are far better choices...



Zymol Titanium looks good, not super wet or deep, just good.



Onyx is a little deeper.



My personal favorite wax is P21s 100% which is around 50. Pinnacle Souveran is 80ish (and much better looking then your choices, IMO). Victoria's is in that range, as well as a host of DoDo Juice Wax...



If you are really wanting to go with the low end of a high-end brand, then I would choose Onxy. But there are quite a few choices that are less and look much better (to my eyes).
 
If I were gonna go out and spend more money on wax (which I'd love to do, but it would mean having to pay alimony, as well), I wouldn't hesitate to go grab some p21s 100%. You should really read the thread that TH0001 (Todd :) ) did on it recently. It *will* make you a believer in this wax. I really want to try this stuff now. And it really sounds like a bargain at fifty bucks compared to the others being considered.



Edit: found the thread. Give this a read, it's well worth the time.

I am halfway through my jar of Titanium and I love it. On the contrary to what TH said, I think it has some great depth, especially on those dark metallics. The only thing I don't like is its durability. Its effective use, IMO, is only up to 3-4 washes. But I have to say, after the jar is gone, I definately plan on getting p21s...

Looking forward to this one...



Hm, maybe you should take that back. I wasn't as blown away as I thought I would be. I *do* think I know why people like this wax as much or more than some other much more expensive waxes, though - it looks a lot like a sealant. Before anyone freaks out on me, sure it still has a lot of the typical characteristics of a wax, but in general I find it looks a lot like some of the better sealants. Tons of depth, lots of reflectivity and wetness, but less "glow" and "shimmer" than some other waxes I use. I guess what I am saying is it looked a little sterile for a wax. I know using terms like this mean different things to different people, but I do what I can.



For the price it does look very good, and it's super easy to use (though not quite as liquidy smooth as the original). We'll see how it holds up. I dumped some water on the car when I was done to see how hydrophobic it was (how a wax "cleans" is as high on my list of important characteristics as how it looks), and it was average, decent beads, didn't really sheet the water off. I'll keep using it to see if my initial impressions change.



Edit: the two cars I used it on today were black and metallic grey, if that makes any difference.
 
Cool, Picus, it's always good to hear what someone else sees in a product. BTW, how are your photography skills holding up nowadays? ;)
