Zymol products

What is everyones experience with Zymol products? I'm not talking just the cheap cleaner wax they sell at Wall-Mart. (Although I'd be intersted in hearing how well that works). Anyone ever use the "Japon" wax? [URL=http://www.zymol.com/crecar2.htm[/URL] I'm sure they can make your car really shiny, but do they protect well? Is carnuba wax really better than some of the other synthetic products out there? What about their other products? (washing,cleaning,feeding)

I used the Zymol Cleaner/Wax. I personally think it works well. I prefer it over Meguirs. Easy to put on and take off, shines really good. (my car is black). I waxed my car about 2 weeks ago, I live in Alabama and we get alot of rain and it is still beading up pretty good. Plus it smells li pinacolada. lol I haven't tried any of the other products. Hope this helps.

I have had awesome results with this stuff! First use the HD-cleanse, then use the wax paste. The carbon for black cars is really amazing stuff! Pretty expensive, but you just can not compare zymol to other canadian tire products. Its in a league of its own!

I reccommend it!

I have used the Japon Wax, I have used the Creme, and the Carbon Zymol wax too. Oh and I also used the Atlantique. That stuff costs $1500 for 8 ounces. The HD cleanse is a biatch to wipe off.....Make sure you always clean the paint before using Zymol.

So what did you think of the results? Better than a good $15 wax from the auto parts store? Does it seem to protect? How harsh is the HD cleanse, is it meant to be used before waxing every time (4+ times a year). I don't doubt zymol products make paint look good, but I want to know if it is providing good protection from salt, sun, bird crap etc. Not that I would ever buy it...but was the Atlantique worth the money?
