lbls1 said:Now, IMO, the performance of the Zymols will be very difficult to approach based on my experience and comparison. However, I really have a hard time terming any product as the best. Can a product really be the best if its priced out of the majority of potential users? Or is it really the best if it is more difficult to use than a typical like product? The "best" is really a subjective and often abused word that only relates to something based on someone else's opinion.
Each person will have to decide and determine what's best for him or her based on their experience. That's the beauty of having a variety of products to choose from. You can only guage how well zymol performs by actually using it and comparing it to other waxes.
Well put! So many people try to label a product that they use as the "best" when really it's only the best for them. There are no objective measures in car care only subjective ones which is exactly why I don't put much stock in wax test reports.

Durability as a lot of people mentioned in this thread is definitely highly influenced by the environment you live in. An LSP on a car in Arizona during the summer will probably not last as long as an LSP on a car in North Carolina during the fall.
Clearly, durability is an important factor to you. When making my decision on LSPs durability has little to no impact. As long as a wax lasts 4-6 weeks then I'm happy because that's as long as I can go before I want to wax my car again. When I'm making my LSP choice my #1 consideration is looks and frankly I just find the look left by sealants to be very artificial and not eye pleasing. So, I don't mind waxing my car once a month (even though I could go longer) to get the look that I find more eye pleasing. :xyxthumbs
