Off the top of my head I can name Victoria Concours, CG pete's 53, Souveran, and World's Best Wax, these I have all heard approach the EGs in terms of looks, but are there any others?
 
In my eyes, CG 50:50 is the most similar look that you can get from a lower-priced wax. It comes closer to matching the range of color and crisp reflections of the big dog than any other wax I've used.
 
Worlds best wax gets my vote although I love 50/50 and Petes 53. I believe that

Worlds best Wax site has been updated , check it out.
 
/flame suit on



with proper prep, i bet 99% of people won't know the difference if you use collinite 845, pinnacle, etc. :)



/flame suit still on! hahahaha
 
paradigm, I am putting my flame suit on as well.......



I really really really agree with you!



flame suit getting warm.....

LoL, I guess since I recently bought Zymol Vintage, i should be getting my hackles up, cracking my knuckles, and pounding the keyboard..... But I can't.



I haven't ever seen the finish left by any of the other waxes mentioned in this thread. I would be willing to bet, however, that all of them are top notch, and as mentioned, would need a trained eye to see any real differences.



I am quite pleased with the Vintage.
 
IIRC, Souveran was designed to mimic the appearance of Zymol Destiny. I prefer the look of Souveran to the Zymol's I've tried so far.
 
I have to STRONGLY disagree with the guys who said Collonite 845 looks the same as a Zymol EG. My guess is that neither of them have ever used a Zymol EG. I have and I can tell you the look of 845 is different from the look of a Zymol EG. Just to name one thing 845 gives a lot more flake pop. I will agree though that 99% of the general public wouldn't know that there was a difference. But the 1% of the population who would notice the difference are the people who post here.



I will also agree with the people who said Souveran has a similar look to Zymol EGs. It's not exactly the same, but it's not too far off. Souveran IMO doesn't have quite the reflective accuracy of Zymol EGs plus IME I get greater durability from Zymol.
 
There can be an astonishing difference between some of those waxes against Zymol, given the same prep. Contrary to popular opinion, Zymol's strength doesn't lie in its gloss or sheen. Its real prowess is in the fidelity of its rendering power and depth of reflection. But to answer the question, the closest I've seen so far has been Victoria Wax, CG's 50/50 (closer to Zymol's Hand Crafted waxes) and maybe Swissol.



Edit: Forgot my closing line...........There's only one true way that you will be able to tell the difference for yourself .........

Agree 100% with that statement. Yellow isn't known for being a "deep" color. My 'bee with Zaino looked very shiny, but had no depth. With Vintage, the gloss and shine is about the same, but you can now see in to the paint. Lot's of depth. From yellow! The vintage also darkened and enriched the color. I'm finding myself wishing for pictures of my car in Zaino and in Vintage. You would definitely see the difference in depth and color.
