Default Wax vs. Synthetic Polymer

I have been using the P21S system with great results. I went to my local supplier yesterday to pick up a new jar of wax when the subject of synthetic polymers came up. He told me that the shine from the synthetics is great, they last longer than wax, but they don't protect a car's finish the way wax would. I must admit the answer surprised me. I thought the synthetics were no match at all for the real thing. Any thoughts? I am always looking for something better.

Default There is no real answer to this. It has been debated on every car forum in the world thousands of

times. It basically comes down to the Zaino vs. ZYmol argument (synthetic vs carnauba wax).

I have been very happy with my carnauba Zymol and Pinnacle. I have close friends here and in real life that are ecstatic with Zaino.

P21s is considered to be good stuff. Stick with it.
