i love reading the (swissvax) handbook along with zymols history. im wondering how true is this what were reading ? i mean zymol says atlantique wax was formulated just expecially for (ralph lauren). i heard this wasnt true. that they use names just to push product.

Honestly man, does it really matter?? Just wondering if Ralph Lauren has his own wax does that make you more likely to buy it? It wouldn't me.

i don't know, but i was watching a show on discovery channel where he took delivery of an uber expensive car, a limited lambo maybe. anyhow, he was on the show and you can tell he likes his cars and likes to spend his money.

im wondering mostly swissvax they say (mystery) as anwanders personalwax.. was this reall out in the 1930s?. its a great wax dont get me wrong. i was just googling trying to get more infor on this antikwachs wax. and family. and the only thing that pops up is detail forums . nothing at all about this other then whats in my swissvax book. im just interested is all .

that's like Meguiar's, since 1901...

I know Zymol is a newer company (I think late '80s or early 90's) and their original wax was Meguiars #16 with a slight scent change and Meguiars #3 (HD-Cleanse).

Also good luck on finding anything that supports that SwissVax existed before 1995. I'm not saying that they haven't, but every search that I have tried and everybody I spoke to has not been able to show any proof of the company existing before then. Also there is a reason that a lot of the old time UK detailers don't remember using the product...

I would love to know more about this history of SwissVax (beside what the resellers and company says) but nobody seems to remember its illustorious history

HD Cleanse used to be Meg's #3? Or Zymol's original wax was #16 mixxed with #3 and a scent change?

i just asked my grandma about swissvax and she says yes in 1930 she does remember seeing a horse and buggy going by around town that that was really shiny.
