[s-cars] Best Hand Wax?

[Frederic L'Huillier]

Hi,

Wish some people at Audi France have the same attitude as Mr Bennett.
That's what I call Customer Care Attitude.

Regards,
Frederic

I have been a fan of Zymol wax for over 10 years. It started when I
attended the BMWCCA Octoberfest in 1989 with my beloved but now gone
1970 CS Coupe. This guy in a white lab coat approached me and asked if
he could wax my car. "Huh?" Says I. He introduced himself as Chuck
Bennett and explained he was the owner of Zymol and traveled the coutry
promoting his product at all the major marque gatherings. He waxes cars
that he likes and he liked my car. I agreed and have been a loyal fan
ever since.

I think the name of the dark color specific wax is Carbon. Don't but the
stuff sold at the major chains. Its not the same. You'll want to use
their surface prep called HD Cleanse first. The initial application
takes longer but subsequent waxing is very quick. There's also hardly
any white stuff to detail out of crevices. Don't be fooled by some
claims of 100% carnuba wax. The wax that's in there is 100% carnuba but
typically that's less than 5% of the total. The Carbon has about 25-30%
carnuba. The price is high at about $40 a can but you'll get 10-15
applications if you use the prescibed very little for each use. They
also encourage you to wax in the direct sunlight as the heat helps the
carnuba to flow out of suspension better. Plus, there are no harmful
by-products. The others use a lot of bad stuff to suspend the carnuba
and thus can cause damage in the direct sun. Did I mention how great all
their stuff smells? Joey and Paulie would probably want to eat or
whatever this stuff.

There's also the Zaino polymer products but I haven't had the chance to
use these. BTW my car did win the Concours at the 1st s-car Nationals.

Hap, gonna be waxin with 70 degree sunshine in Everboost, Maguire
