| | | Just tried Zymol Carbon
Verdict? Save your money.....
It wasnt as easy to remove as some of the "cheaper" waxes, FK Pink wax, DP MW, SS2, XMT 180, Nattys blue, etc etc....
And there was nothing special about the looks, depth or wetness. I used it over Jetseal on the M3 I posted in the Show Shine forum, it didnt look any different....
And I hate Zymol jars... hard to close......
Maybe I should try HD cleanse, I have it, I just didnt feel like using it. Ill report back later, but for now, AG's lower priced waxes are KING over Carbon.

I'm satisfied with DP Max Wax, Souveran paste, XMT 180, SSII.

| | | Carbon Vs Concourse is not really fair to compare, they aren't in the same league. I'm not sure about putting the wax on top of a sealent though, I've never tried it....mmm... not sure it would be the same affect as HD cleanse then Carbon or Concourse. |

| | | You have to use the HD Cleanse at first, no way out. Beceause the very good exchange rates between Dollar and Euro me and some friends from germany were able to order some luxerios Zymol stuff. Its much more cheaper than in UK or germany. After reading so many threads I´m quite impressed in the Zymol products, so I decided to order.
Think the items are playing in their own league. |

| | | I have tried to warn each of you, save your money. Zymol is all marketing and forced pricing levels. You will not find anything that is better until getting to Destiny and up in the Estate Glazes. Even then its more about cost, exclusitivity, and showing off than the wax itself. |

Im going to try the Carbon with HD before and see if that makes a difference.
But you definitely did warn me time and time again!

But you definitely did warn me time and time again! | well obviously cheaper waxes like Carbon isn't the best Zymol offers...and so far I'm well satisfied with Pinnacle waxes...that doesn't I don't want to sample those refillable high end waxes, but if only I could do it just paying for shipping...
