    I'm having trouble deciding which one I should get.

    I believe more people has Glasur here and would probably vote for that. Actually a friend of mine also has the Glasur and I've seen it. It looks GREAT.

    HOWEVER. Just because he already has Glasur I'm leaning towards Ital and just to try out different things. I'm hoping people who tried the new Ital can give me some feedback.

    if there is such a thing as colour charged waxes, id imagine ital is formulated to look best on red, whereas glasur works best on silvers and dark metallics

    that'd be stretching it though

    i have glasur

    Sigh....my car is white and I'm trying my best to convince myself to get Ital.

    But the thing is not too many people own Ital, so there aren't too many info I can get from Ital.

    im pretty sure there are better (and cheaper) products to use on white than any of the zymol stuff

    I have SHITLOAD of lsp that people say are good for white, lol.

    I just wanted to try out Zymol after I find my swissvax working out so nicely.

    And then I found out Zymol's Ital dropped from $400 to $100.

    im sure the price drop had more to do with a US warehouse over stocked

    i personally would go with glasur, it gets good feedback from the UK guys, and they'd know a thing or 2 about durability given their climate

    So people that have gotten Ital (both new and old formula as they are the same price now) how does it compare to Glasure? What is its durability like? One last longer, significant, than the other, what would look best on a bright red.

    Come on Ankeet, LSPs add nothing to the finish. :p:

    Yeah on know on a perfectly polished paint it does not make a difference but mine is not perfect, :( ; and lsps do alter it somewhat. Just want to know which one will last longer and sheet water. :)

    I dont have a full pot of Zymol in my collection.

    I was messing around, even on perfectly prepped paint I can still tell very very subtle differences between certain LSPs and also the larger differences in durability and ease of cleaning are more noticeable. I bought Zymol Concours and to be honest it is a bit harder to use than I think it should be by foam applicators (will not use my hands) but it does look great and my god does it bead!

    for you pros maybe

    but hobbiests will never be satisfied with any one LSP regardless of how good it is

    eg; ill be using my lusso oro on the weekend solely for the coconut smell

    Have powerlock already. Just want something new, and who does not like to break in a new pot of wax. Plus, I dont have any pull pots of Zymol just a sample of Royal and my SV pot is getting lonely haha.

    You probably need justification, bet you already search up and down the web for reviews. Just that one last assurance from someone so we don't feel guilty about getting one more LSP.

    Actually I cant find any reviews on Ital, other than one done on here, so looking to see what is up with that (old and new formula) also Glasur I have read is great but cant find any good durability results here in the states.

    I never feel guilty about getting more LSPs :) Just feel guilty I dont get to use them as often as I would like. Anyone in the Charlotte, NC area is welcome to try any of my LSPs out.
