Vette(s): 74 coupe 4 speed 350, 54K actual miles, all original; paint, interior, engine, split bumper. #'s match. 2nd owner, no stress cracks.
Has anybody tried this stuff on your C3??
 
I got a Xmas catalog in the mail from www.calcarcover.com.  They have "Zymol Destiny Estate Glaze" for $486 big ones....
 
It contains carnauba wax and almond, coconut, banana and sunflower oils.   You can see the picture of this stuff on their website.
 
But also for that price, the 8 oz can comes in a solid cherry wood storage box.  Shipping is free.  Wow, what a deal.
 
Could someone buy this stuff, and tell the rest of us poor folks what is like......Thanks

I'll forward the information to my wife as a Christmas gift suggestion.

I'll give everyone a review of the product as soon as my divorce settlement would be completed due to spending that kind of money on car wax.

Vette(s): 1974, 454 with 4 on the floor, matching numbers.
Go to Their website and you'll find a wax they call "Royal Glaze" selling for $7,118.00 Shocked I think it's a life time refill. I've been told by a Zymol rep that it's used by the million + $ show cars. I don't care what's in it, that's a lot of money.
But then again if you have a car registered to show at Pebble Beach, 7 grand to those guys is like 7 bucks to us.
 
After trying just about every wax out there, I'm now solely using Zymol's Carbon wax ($40) it's for darker colored cars and it really leaves a nice shine.

$7,118.00 would go a long way for a new paint job!!!GEZZZ.Gotta be a pull my chain sort of thing.There is no way in the history of the world that wax would be worth that much.Sure there are different kinds of waxes out there but not with that much of a price spread.What are the Zanio guys gonna do now??There is one for every seat.Gotta be a spoof!!zgator2006-12-18 17:41:07
