I'm considering this product and wanted to know if you guys recommend it.



I ordered the Zymol spray on wheel wax, but they took my money and never delivered the product. I called Zymol & was told it was out of stock n on back order for a few weeks (4 weeks). I waited months and months and finally gave up & demended a refund. I wont take the chance & order the wheel wax from Zymol.



Did some shopping & found this product from Autoglym. Your thoughts please.
 
In the UK its liked by some but I found it to be distinctly average protection, its main benefit is the spray application.

There are far superior wheel sealants for durability and appearance.

There are too many dedicated wheel sealants to name, best use the `Search` function.

Wheel seal and Shine is one of the newest in the UK and I and many others have found its performance out punches most even at its reasonable price, I`m not sure about International shipping though.

Another I`ve got to mention is from Nanolex, their alloy wheel sealant is from an excellent range of durable products.

But any paintwork sealant will give results at least as good if not better than Autoglym wheel seal which is about £5/$3 here on ebay.
 
Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection is by far the best sealant i have used on my wheels. If you use Super Resin Polish first (atleast on clearcoated wheels) you will get a nice bright look to the wheels that will last as EGP repells water really well and brake dust will have a hardtime getting stuck on.



As for there dedicated wheel sealant i would say avoid, as dervdave has said it doesnt last very long. Also it does not look all that good, its one of there products that needs a make over.
 
For quick touch ups on chrome, aluminum, polished aluminum wheels; as well as other chrome, aluminum, etc. metal surfaces, a spray on wax/polish works well. I use MetalWax Spray Wax for those "in between" quick details, however, as stated above, if you want to effectively protect your wheels, use a good quality sealant or wax, only becuase the spray waxes do not seem to offer the same amount of protection.
