This wax costs more than some cars!!!

God, you could almost repaint your car instead...

I think it would be best to buy zaino instead

Thats a bit expensive

It says on the side that the container is refillable for life at no extra charge. It should be at that price

I like how they emphasize that it is refillable at no charge. Of course there is a charge. That is the reason why you are spending the $1500 for it.

I have some and let me tell you it works really well. First off it smells SO GOOD you want to eat it! You only use around a half dollar size to wax the car. You put it in your hand to melt it then apply it by hand. It takes about 2-3 coats to get the best shine out of it. You also have to use some glaze first to get all the old stuff off.

No I did not spend $1500 for it! You can find it on the net for $1000. I got a sample kit with some of there other wax for a $100.

I use the Zymol TI. It works real well and is at a good price point.

Amazing stuff!. I've used it many times and can't say enough good things about it. Damn you guys are cheap.....look at it this way. There is enough wax in the container to do about 10 cars, you get it filled once per year for free and you use it for 20 years. That means it costs you about $7.50 each time you wax your car.

My friend bought the sample pak of 3 estate glazes from zymol. For $150-200 you get 3 4oz containers of the estate glazes. BTW, they arn't any different than the next wax. He uses zaino now.

$1500 sounds a bit steep, but at $1K it sounds quite tempting... I'll think about it... with unlimited refills (For life? Can you pass the container to your grand kids?)?. I have 6 cars soon to be 7 at home. I wax the Bimmer every 2-3 weeks not including the other cars. That's a whole lot of wax considering how many coats you do. Do you send it back for a refill? And how long is the turnaround time? Thanks.
