    Zymol's Concours Glaze

    Less than 2 years ago I had my 60' media blasted and then painted with a base coat/clear coat finish. Since the paint has no imperfections I just want a high quality wax to protect the new finish. I will be going to car shows in the spring and summer and have been looking at Zymol's Concourse Glaze @ $150/8oz. adn Destiny Estate Glaze @ $444/8oz. Does anyone know if these products or worth the price?

    I couldn't see the shine being any better than a good Meguiar's, Mother's, or Zaino Bros. product at a fraction of the price.

    Sounds more like caviar prices to me.

      For "garden variety" waxes - check Consumer Reports - they just rated waxes.

        I can't imagine paying those prices for wax, unless it's labeled Chanel No.5, in a crystal bottle. Each to their own, but I use Meguiar's "Gold Class" liquid - EZ on, EZ off, terrific gloss and depth, and it lasts a season.

          you could just go to walmart and get the Zymol they it sell for about 12 bucks, as it is rated number 1 on the wax. and you can build layers with it as it is water based. I have never used it on my car but I did use it on a clear coat model that I just painted and it was great. but I dont think one needs to spend that kind of money on wax jmtcw.

            I have to agree with John. I've tried many different waxes and I still find Meguiar's Gold Class works the best on any kind of finish. It goes on easy, leaves no streaks and lasts longer than other waxes. Occasionally I go over it with a detailer and it looks as good as when I first put it on.

              I too have used Meguiar's Gold Class for years but noticed that it did not rate well in the recent Consumer Reports ratings. In fact just about all of the Meguiar's products rated fair to poor.

                The Corvette never rates that well either, but it doesn't stop us from buying them.

                  Those prices on the Zymol Glazes are crazy!!

                  Wonder if Barrett Jackson gets a cut on those?

                  http://www.zymol.com/destiny.htm Regular Price: $525.00

                  http://www.zymol.com/atlantiq.htm 8 ounces: Regular Price: $968.00

                  and ohhhhh last but not least! Regular Price: $1650.00 (unlimited)

                  The directions....
                  "Put a very small amount of the glaze to the palm of your hand. Use the warmth of your hands to melt the Carnauba. Then with your other hand please sign the papers for a new mortgage to pay for your supply of glaze..."

                  If they came with some hot Brazilan Chicks that will do the polishing for you, then we would be talking.

                  Stick with the Maquire's or Zaino.

                    Are these prices for real?

                        You guys are not reading the fine print. The $1650.00 one is fillable free for life (or bankruptcy or skipping town, whichever comes first.) Gee if I was 16 again instead of 71 I might spring.

                          i use the standard zymol wax i guess looking at the prices - good results and you only need very little of the stuff.

                              To put that stuff on a 3 million dollar car would be the same as $10. wax on a regular Corvette.
