Default Zaino vs. Zymol?

Having a bet with my brother...

I'm saying Zaino is better, whereas he says Zymol is.

Who has used both and what are your opinions? Thanks

Also, I'm not talking about the liquid blue zymol you buy at the store... it's the good kind you can buy off of their website.

really very different products...
zymol makes several diff products, but all are basically carnubas.
zaino is a synthetic polymer.
zaino was found to have a longer lasting protection than carnuba (see guru reports) and many of us think that it gives a better shine.
that said, several of us like both together...
i top my zaino with carnuba-
cause they both have different qualities that i think are complimentary.

Depends on what you like. Some prefer the depth and wet look of a good carnauba to the somewhat plasticy looking Zaino. Zymol's higer end waxes are nice but not worth the money in my opinion. I think those waxes are more for car shows that protecting paint form any elements. Try S100/P21s or if you really want to splurge try Pinnacle Souveran Paste Wax($60-$70).

As far as protection from the elements and duration of protection... no comparison. Zaino wins hands down.
