i think if you could get lifetime refills from them, the price isn't too bad. especially for the professional detailers. but i'm wondering about the smell of your hands after waxing. maybe girls won't let you touch them again

I've used zymol Concours and it smells like coconuts. I don't know if they still make it but back when I used it, each container had a handwritten serial number and it was signed by the owner of the company (I forget his name -- Rich something?)
Anyway, you're supposed to actually apply this wax directly to the car with your bare hands (no applicator). For days later, your hands smell like the beach!

On that second link, I'd use pinnacle souveran wax, P21s carnauba or Meguiars #16. Following a clay bar and a nice polish with one of these waxes will leave you happy.
Also in that link, check out Klasse AIO and Klasse SG. If you prep your paint properly and follow it with the 2-step Klasse system, you'll be good for around 5-6 months.

It's funny how the only time I've heard of Zaino is on that other forum. Aren't they advertisers there? I think it's more of a polish than a wax so as far as protection, I don't think it offers too much.
Oh well, all I can say is I've never used it and probably never will. I remember Lomag using it when he first got his car and I remember that he was impressed with the shine.

It was impeccable, especially on the the Mystic Blue. I think that might be Lomag's car in the Gallery. Wonder if he still has those shots of his car right after he Zainoed it?

I'll bet he does. (You could probably do a search on RF to see it too.)
I'm still wondering if other car polishes would yield similar results on a brand new car. The Mystic Blue is a beautiful color with a deep shine. I find it hard to believe that Zaino is that much better than offerings from other companies -- if it was, wouldn't we be hearing about it much more?
