Question

Tell me this, whats all this talk about wax wizard? Is it any better than ordinary wax and if so how? I use Simonise, hard wax from the tin and it seems ok to me.

Wax has at least ten times the content than other waxes. I spent four hours doing my MY00 DBM on Saturday with the full kit. Wasn't too convinced during the process but the finish is amazing. Wet look gloss, no BS.

I spent 6 hours using the Samurai starter kit yesterday.
The paintwork is in showroom condition again
Expensive stuff (compared to the guff you buy in Halfords), but worth it for spectacular results!

Wax Wizzard/Swizzol/Zymol products are completely different from anything you buy at Halfords etc.

They have very high wax content, are applied slightly differently, give a far better finish and are more expensive.

Simon

Give Mark a shout, YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED!!!

Just back from a meet where I compared my Swissol prepared car to one that had been done with Zymol.

My car is a MY97 with 95k and the other a T-plate sti5 with about a quarter of my mileage.

Try and guess the one everyone thought a better job!!
