I would like to hear from Zymol users,about what they consider to be better for buffing the wax.Do you prefer to use cotton towels,or do you use microfibre towels,which do you think is better for 'setting' the wax? Do you think that microfibre towels tend to 'remove' to much of the wax,as you buff.

Hi,

Pro Detailer here

I ALWAYS use ultra plush microfibre towels for removing wax residue... if the paintwork has been prep'd correctly then one gentle wipe is all that is required to remove residue.

I usually then give it an hour or so before going round the car with some QD and another clean microfibre to buff the vehicle up some more.

Are you using the Zymol HD Cleanse as well?

The official way is to buff/remove the hd cleanse with a cotton towel, but with the wax you should use a microfibre as they are non absorbant so do not remove the wax simply buff a shine to the wax.

Although the above is the offical way it is not always correct, it all depends on the car and the type of paint as sometimes on dark cars the towels can slightly scratch so my suggestion would be to use Microfibres for both process

A well respected detailer I know uses those cheap yellow dusters - buy a pack of ten for 99p sort of dusters - is this a trade secret? They always get a really deep finish and have loads of repeat business from owners of up-market cars. If these cheap yellow dusters do the job why spend a small fortune on microfibre cloths?

The plusher the mircofiber the better, not many places for a tiny spec of grit to go when using a yellow duster (apart from some nice marks in your paint). Even with the very best wash and dry techniques it still happens why risk for the sake of £5.

I am the same as Dave and Mike.
