Zymol Handcrafted Waxes--Japon 8 oz.

Excellent shine with superior hydrophobic properties. I am a car detail enthusiast and enjoy caring for my cars. Wash and prep car well including clay, paint cleaner, etc. I like applying it by hand. Because my hands have callouses I wear disposable nitrile gloves so I don't scratch the surface. I use a small space heater to properly heat activate the wax in my hand, then apply section at a time. You only need to use a little. After waiting a short time I wipe off. After completing the car I then do a light water spritz and buff. (sort of like a car version of a spit shine) I do a total of 3 coats spaced them 3 hours apart from each coat. Although each coat is applied efficiently (takes only 10 minutes to complete each coat) I plan on taking a day to work on my car.The result is a superior shine. I have used Meguiar #26 and Chemical Guy's Butter Wax but this looks better. After 2 months of normal wash maintenance I noticed the car surface still has very tight water beads following a rain indicating great hydrophobic properties. The shine is still very good, even 2 months later.

This wax works beautifully. Love it!The good:+1. Easy to apply;+2. Propels water extremely well;+3. When the car is getting dusty, I can use a blower to blow it off and then use a clean cloth to gently wipe the rest off;The bad:-1. Have to use Zymol HD Cleanse to clean the car first, very time consuming and real hard work.-2. On the expensive sideOverall, it is an amazing product, highly recommend it!

I have used this car wax on my Honda vehicle for years. It is the only car wax I buy to keep my car protected from the elements.

Product was received damage. Can't rate the product

Been using Zymol wax for years and it lasts at least 3 month after waxing, Very easy application and take off.Recommended to get a nice even surface for best results. I use Zymol HD cleanse before waxing but you only have to apply that once a year at most if you keep the wax on it.

Pictures speak for themselves Follow instructions HD cleanse 1st. DO NOT use circular machines or in circular motion. Apply straight lines up and down then side to side. 2×2 foot sections. I did roof 1st using HD Cleanse then Wax. Then doors, rear 1/4 panels, trunk, rear bumper, front 1/4 panels and hood last as car has to be cool to the touch It takes awhile section by section. Use different applicators for HD cleanse and wax. I used 6 micro fiber cloths for cleanse and 6 for wax... (Half roof and 1 door. Rear 1/4 panel, half trunk and half bumper. Front 1/4 panel and half hood.) To buff out. So apply HD cleanse side to side turn applicator over then rub in up down. Mico towel buff off. Then wax, different applicator same application side to side turn applicators over rub in up down. Micro buff off. Any smudges will come off with Zymol quick detailer. I work at an Auto Parts store and deliver to shops. So everyone has their favorites and Zymol is pricey and 4 to 6 hours 3 times a year... But they all bow down to me. When it's raining co workers and customers have said why isn't your car wet? Or my favorite " your car is evil its crying!" Because the rain just slides off like it's crying ... no beads of water!!!!

This was my first purchase of a Zymol car wax product; I was a bit leery of spending so much money on a car wax.I applied the wax as directed and wiped it off. I've used some good, but less expensive car waxes before, but Zymol really brought out the depth and shine of the paint like no other wax ever has. My car looked better than the day I bought it! You'd swear it was brand new and just came off the showroom floor. I really was shocked at how good my car looked after waxing it with the Zymol Handcrafted Japon Wax.I would definitely recommend this product!

Its pretty nice. I wax my vehicles often so its hard to tell if its any better than other brands, but it works. One thing to note is that you need to refrigerate this product after opening.
