it can be applied by hand or machine

I think it's made by turtle wax though. Never used it but would assume it stains trim so take care around it. Also saw that it made the thread about items you wish you'd never bought.

If you have it already then use it. Should work fine for what it is...

The pics above show the new bottles and updated labels for the Zymol OTC line which indeed is sold locally at mass retailers and a product licensed from another brand.

Junk!!! If you want Zymol start with Titanium.

I thought the OP was in search of application methods info for a Zymol cleaner-wax. I may have be mistaken, though.

Lol I used this stuff so much before becoming an AutoGeek. I applied by hand and thought it did an excellent job, it may have with the right steps prior to

application and an LSP but I would use it as an AIO, looking back it was probably a mess. As stated in the previous thread this stuff is nasty on trim.

For some reason or another, I've never used any Zymol product, not even OTC, in my lifetime...
The pics I posted was for entertaining the idea that the OP would clarify which bottle/product he had purchased.

I used it about 10 years ago and it was OK. It's available at most retail stores and is a bit pricey and for what it does I'd say it was just OK. I think I gave it away with about half the bottle left....

I didn't like the way it stained any sort of plastic or rubber trim.

Anyone use Zymols top end products? I notice AG doesn't sell them and I'm guessing there is a good reason why. Are they any good? Overpriced? How about Swissvax. They make special products for different manufacturers "paint systems". Really? Is it just a gimmick? Or should I try the two hundred dollar Blau Weiss?
