Default Zymol Concours is it worth the money.

I'm considering buying some Zymol Concours but before I do I wondered if the forum member's here feel it is it worth the money?

If you have used it I would appreciate hearing you comments about it.

Would you pay that much for a wax to put on your personal cars?

Your comments will be appreciated.

Gary

Well my personal view on this is that yes it's worth it but you have to know how to apply it.

Thing with Zymol products is that there is a process for applying there products and most importanatly the prep work.

What I mean is that if you go a head and purchase Zymol Concours, you'll also need HD Cleanse and field glaze. Now you don't have to get these items but thing with Zymol is that they are really high maintenance and picky. So if you want it to look it's best I'd recomend you pick up those items as well.

Is it worth it? I would say it is, the depth and worm feeling it leaves behind is quite something. I've only seen one or two products meet or get close to what Zymol delivers..but that's just my opinion.

Looks very good pirex, how do you think it compares to a care with no wax or sealant on it?

Your Concours detail:


Detail after polish only with no wax or sealant:

Thats a hard one Gary. Your viper is looking great just after polish. But I think the wax will give it the extra wet look and add a glow. But thats my opinion.

Oh, and my car wasen`t polished before applying the wax. Just wax here!

The quality of the pictures are completely different, different cameras, different settings, different environments. You cant compare those pictures.

Carlos, Thank you very much for your comments. I have never use HD Cleanse and field glaze. So where would I get this and how much does it run?

I have used it before, and love it. I JUST recived my 2 new tubs of it , not 10 min ago. So yeah, i use alot of it
Its good. but Nica is right. Its a bit of a bear to upkeep, but if you can commit to it, it will make your car look stunning.

No worries Gary, but I just figuired it's best to know what your getting your self in to buddy

As for the price on HD Cleanse Zymol US has an 8.5oz for $26.00 and the Field Glaze for $20.00. I'll be you can get a better deal if you look around but to be honest I'm not 100% sure about that....I mean if you phone a store up and say okay I'll take Concours, HD Cleanse and Field Glaze but I'd like a discount I'm sure you can at least get 10% off heck Diane of Zymol always gives the 10% if you ask for it.

Well just my experiance Gary but I'm sure if you talk to Phil (Detailers Domain) he can hook you up.

Thanks so much Ketil,

I'm sure it will add more wetness and glow. I 'mjust not sure if it will add that much more then a much cheaper wax.

I appreciate everyone's comments. I really just want to be able to justify spending that much more for a wax before I purchase it.
