$274 can of wax

Re: $274 can of wax

Glasur received. I like it. ALOT. Even more than MPPP. But Meguiars will still be my go-to product for weekly use.

Are you guys referring to the Zymol Glasur?

Quite pricey @$100/bottle

Re: $274 can of wax

I think I'm going to order a jar of Glasur this week...

I have read good things about Glasur. If one wants to try out a Zymol wax, Glasur appears to be the product with which to start. Let us know (at least let me know) how you like it.

Cheers,

Re: $274 can of wax

Well as Mike P. would say, "Find something you like, and use it often."

If they feel like applying 90 coats of zaino but they like the results, we honestly cant argue with that.

Even though I can get better results with 2 coats of M21, that's not the point lol

Pretty much. Don't forget that M21 costs WAY less than the 90 coats of zaino.

Re: $274 can of wax

The Zaino zealots are one of the most bizarre crowds that I've met...I'm sure it's at least partly psychological - if you spend 2 days spraying products on and then wiping them off, you car MUST look incredible (like how I feel about paste waxes ) and everything else on the market that takes less time and effort to apply must be garbage. Facts are a crutch for the weak.

Re: $274 can of wax

Thats just insane! Most people arent going to be able to tell the difference between a $20 wax and a $274 one. But im sure people buy it and think its the best stuff ever just because of the price.

I just showed this thread to my wife. She said that you could tell the difference between the $274 wax and the $20 wax . The $274 one will have a devorce decree with it!!

Re: $274 can of wax

A gentleman I know used Zaino wax (I'm not sure which No. since there products confuse me so much) side by side against NXT 2.0 on his hood. Guess which one he liked better.... That's right, the Meg's. Of course the zealots scoffed, but I really think that Meg's is the best on the market.

Re: $274 can of wax

Now Zaino is something I'll never try...I knew too many Zaino Zealots in high school that completely steered me away from their products...Their cars never looked as good as mine either.
I have no problem with Meguiars prep products - I'll even go so far as to say that I feel that they're the best...I just don't like to limit myself based on brand loyalty so I'm going to branch out on LSPs, but I still refuse to pay more than $100 for a wax...

Re: $274 can of wax

This sounds like the one I have heard about Zaino. I'm not saying it's not a good product but come on, Meg's is just as good.

Re: $274 can of wax

You wouldnt catch me using that wax any day of the week. I would take that 274 dollars and go crazy on one large order at ADS

Oh yea! That would be one huge order!

Re: $274 can of wax

So why can AutoGeek get away with selling this stuff at half price sometimes? Is the markup on it that high?

They are part of the same company that makes the product.

Re: $274 can of wax

Keep in mind that waxes that might "look" better will more than likely not last as long. It is a trade off. The best form of a protective sealant (last a very long time) will look like a smeary mess on your car. These are not made 'cause they don't sell!

Absolutely. That's why I fully intend to use NXT2.0 as a sealant prior to using any Carnauba products. I wax my car as close to weekly as possible, so longevity isn't an issue, but peace of mind is priceless .

Now that is a very interesting question ... Welcome to the world of high-end waxes.
