Very nice looking. We ended up using both Meguires, them Zymol for the second coat on my car. I will get pics up tonight. The only thing that is not cool when you wax your car is that every chip in the paint will show right up as it turns white when the wax dries.

theres a great thread in the detailing section. i don't know how to link it, but the title is something like "zaino vs. zymol".

Dude, you're raining on my parade! :banghead: I used the Deep Crystal system 3 stuff, I guess not so great.



I'd like the article if you don't mind. Thanks for the great intell.

Personally, I think meguires is much better than zymol. It lasts longer. Zymol, however is WONDERFUL on dark colored cars. Just requires alot of elbow greese cause zymol tends to darken paint up a bit.



Just my 2.3994945 cents.
