Polish paradigms - Zaino vs. Zymöl
I know there are a lot of Zaino fans on the forum; haven't seen too many Zymol posts.
I think it's interesting that these 2 products are both considered top-end but seem to have very different approaches. Synthetic vs. organic. High-tech vs. a "carriage maker’s formula developed in the German town of Bischofsheim in the late 1800s."
A few lines from Zaino's site:
We use the latest synthetic polymer technologies to create Z-2™ Show Car Polish. The result is nothing less than paint finish perfection.
For best results, it is critical to enable Z-2™ Show Car Polish with ZFX™ Flash Cure Accelerator Additive. See ZFX™ Flash Cure Accelerator Additive for details.
Professional painters add chemicals and compounds to their paint mix prior to painting to improve paint flexibility, reduce paint imperfections, increase hardness, and improve gloss. We applied this same line of thinking in the development of ZFX™.
Contrast with Zymöl:
['vintage' wax] Contains White Carnauba Sap/Wax, Montan Evergreen Oil, Sunflower Oil, Cantaloupe Oil, Coconut Oil, Honeydew Extract, Propolis (derived from Bees), Cetyl Esters, Cetyl Cocoamide (derived from coconut oil).
Yum!
[leather conditioner] Contains Beef Collagen, Banana Oil, Lemon Seed Oil,Coconut Oil, Cetyl Esters, Cetyl Cocoamide, Lecithin and Aloe Vera Extract.
you could eat this $h*t!
Also, application for the Zymöl:
1. Put a very small amount of the glaze to the palm of your hand. Use the warmth of your hands to melt the Carnauba. With your hand, gently apply the glaze in a light, even pattern over no more than two or three square feet of painted surface.
Making love to your car?! :D
Since these are both highly-regarded products I think I'll go with the fragrant and sensual (and maybe healthier) experience.
