Spent 4.5 hours applying Zymol to my car at the weekend.It's a long process but worth it.Started by washing and drying the car.Followed that by applying the Zymol HD Cleanse which removed any residues and stuck on grime leaving a real nice surface for the final step,The Zymol wax.
Takes quite a while to do but worth it I think. What do you think???Zymol pics Richie |

This is top stuff Richie,
I use it on my E36 M3 Convertible and it comes up really good. I have been using it for a year now and it has helped me win the concours at Gaydon in Elite Class. Tristan p.s the car looks great |

Eh let me think about that one......No thanks. One 4.5hr session is enough for me.Arms were hanging off by the end of it and to top it off it was one of the hottest days this year.

Very nice results! Mine was very lucky to get a hose and a bucket of soap over it this weekend! We'll definitely be able to spot you on the roads with that gleam! |

Well they only had the "Deep Crystal" range - Step 1-4 etc. But may be take an order for the NXT range.
There is an Irish website opening soon for Meguiars so some online purchases may be possible then. I wouldn't mind trying the Scratch-X to see if it works. As ever, finding a weekend is the problem and then hoping the weather won't let you down is a lottery! |

Bl00dy cats are a pain,especially when they decide to stretch their claws on your bonnet.Try leaving a samll bowl of whiskas with some poison in it beside your car.They're bound to have a bite before gettin some kip on your car.

Hi all
I ahve just joined the club just before Gaydon Zymol is a very good product but the Miracle detailer at Gaydon informed me that P20 is as good so i bought some and sure enough it is at a third of the price |

Is there much work involved in the p20 and Swissol compared to Zymol? I'm interested to see how long the finish lasts with twice a week washing.
