Default This has been posted before, and I have the same comments as before....

I don't know anyone who uses the Zymol products they chose to test, so the results are not relevant to me (and, I would guess, to a whole lot of other people). Also, I'd rather use carnauba wax than a polymer like Zaino or Finish First, but that basic difference is not even mentioned.

Use what you want, but don't look at this 'test' for a definitive answer. Personally, I'd choose Zymol or Pinnacle over any of the polymers, but that's just my 2 cents ....

Default i don't think there is a definitive answer on this topic, nor many others...

i hadn't realized it had been posted before and thought it was worth contributing.

he did mention the issue of carnauba:

"For years I was lead to believe that a carnauba wax was the best you can buy. I was wrong. Zaino doesn't use any wax in its formula, its made from a hydrophobic-based formula which they claim contains no abrasives, silicone oils, or carnauba wax."

Polymers Rule! (as a guy who works with other polymer products - polymers kick ***)

"Hydrophobic"... so who wants a 'polish' that's scared of water? Wimpy!
