Default Zymol experience on my 99 black A4

well hmm the HD-Clease is pretty cool after washing the car I for the 1st time I found many light clear coat scratches.. (black car ) next I went over the car with the HD-Cleanse and this cleaned up alot of the scratches.. Next the Carbon wax.. Hmm this stuff is VERY VERY difficult to apply/remove.. I noticed that I can't seem to get it totally clear in some spots.. very strange.. Hmmm well.. man after about 1 hour of driving the car.. man I picked up TONS of dust on the rear bumper.. (this sucks considering I took a good part of the day to wax the car.. Arga!!! help Anyone who has a black A4 please give some info to keep the thing clean.. Mixed feelings about the Zymol.. maybe I did something wrong? Please enlighten me thanks!!

Try applying the Zymol wax with your bare hand.<br>this helps 'melt' the wax....a pain but it does the job better.<p>now that you have it waxed............<br>it will be more tolerable if you do a section each time you wash your car <br>instead of trying to do whole car in one shot. do this because zymol doesn't<br>last as long as other waxes.<p>

Well, you have a black car & they're known for showing all the dirt. That's why I don't get them. Not sure I can help you there. Read the instructions on the Zymol. You should only apply it to small sections at a time and wipe off fairly quickly. Do not do large sections (whole hood, door, car, etc.) at one time. If you do it right it's easy to apply. If it's not clear after you apply it the right way, it could mean you did not strip all the old wax off. I have used Zymol & it's good but doesn't last long so I've switched to Meguiar's 26.
