I'm thinking of buying a few Zymol products (shampoo, wax and polish) and was wondering if anyone already uses them?

And if any has any pics of thier car once theyve washed it using the products?

Thanks, Dan

Which Zymol products do you use?

Or do you use a mixture of different brands?

mixture of brands tbh. i normally use the poverty spec zymol stuff that halfrauds sell, but it works nicely. Its the auto wash and the cleaner wax. i'll see if i can find some pics of the car polished with it

Thats pretty f*cking shiney lol

Popping out later on to halfrauds to think ill have a look at their selection on Zymol.

Ive been using Autoglym for a couple of years now cos i won a kit with all their products in it.

But just think im time for a change. See what else is out there.

But defo keep using AutoGlym Bumper Care ;) cant beat it imo

lol im like that now between all the megs/AG stuff for the sax, and i like the turtle wax- just cause of the fillers in the nano tech stuff- so we have shit loads, im thinking of getting the blackfire stuff you were on about before!!

I bought a Zymol kit from Monza which I was excited about using as I had heard good things about it. TBH I thought the car wash (AutoBathe) was pants, some might like it but I didn't. I also used the pre-wax stuff (HD Cleanse) but again didn't think much to that. But when I used the Creame wax i was blown away. It's fantastic stuff. Left me silver VTR looking....wet, slick and very glossy...

For washing I now used Megs Gold Class Shampoo & Conditioner. It seems to work well after I have waxed it with the zymol and doesn't strip the wax. I guess the conditioner kinda helps and once I have dried it off with a drying towel looks like I have just polished & waxed.

Zymol is good stuff, although (in my opinion) there is better out there. It just depends on how much you want to pay.

I think the Zymol wash is around £6 for 500ml, that's really good stuff. Foams up well and does a good job. The cleaner wax is around £12 (?), and is also spot on, but I'd use something else after it (such as AG SRP or Dodo Juice Wax).

You'd use SRP after the Cleaner Wax? Cleaner Wax is a polish with fillers, and some of the wax properties, is it not? So why use a polish after a polish?
I personally use a wax after the Cleaner Wax, although its rare I use it now.
