any help would be appreciated
I replied to your Zymol question in another thread... can't remember it... but yeah, you don't have to follow it up with another, but it doesn't hurt. I used to use carnauba right after it occassionally.

p21s can be found on ebay, I use their POLISH every 6 months and the wax about every 3 weeks. Side by side compared to the corvette which zaino is used on, my 7 has a much deeper shine and looks metter IMO. Cant go wrong either way with Zaino or P21s, but IMHO P21s > Zaino.

You can only get it on e-bay? No where else? Online somewhere on their website or a distributor? Am not really a fan of e-bay

btw, that pic of that 350Z looks awesome... might have to try it.

that's an awesome website... I can get my stuff from there now. Although I did notice that the LIQUID Souveran wax is like 20 bucks or so, way cheaper than the paste which is 70 bucks. Why is that?

Nu Finish = big no no... heard it from a few folks... actually oxides the paint, and makes it fade. I knew a few folks who used it.

Its the only wax I use yes. Its easily applied. Usually people (I do) use Klasse AIO with P21s. The AIO gives it protection and also gives it that "wet" look. Pm me if you have any other questions about p21s

yes, its a MUST that you have to wax your car. Klasse AIO doesnt have any protectants though it might leave your car looking nice since its a paint cleaner. and you dont polish after clay?
