yes ZYmol's cleaner wax found at your local big box store is made by Turtle Wax.


I dont like Griots Wax as its too hard to remove.


All else equal, what i look for: Durability, Ease of removal, Price.

i have used all too. Zaino and Class have been the best for synthetics. If you like carnuba I think P21s is the best because it is 100% carnuba more than any others on market. My detailer swears by 3M products and he has the eye to tell the difference been doing it for a long time.

Not a turbo but I used Klasse All in One then finished with Blackfire Wet Diamond. Both are super super easy to use. Decent iphone pic.

best all around product no contest. Finish Kare #425 polymer spray is a close second. One of the few products that are not brand-interchangeable. The #425 is still my favorite though... I have never touched a more teflon like finish from any boutique brand, its like beads of air rolling over the paint.

I've used products from "The Chemical Guys" and have been very pleased. See my post in the concours section.
