I am considering switching from regular wax (Zymol) to Astroshield, a "siliconized" (?) coating that IPD, among others, sells. Has anyone out there tried it?

    I have used Astroshield. If goes on easy and produces a good shine. However, it does not produce near the depth of a good Carnuba wax. The look is much better with a high quality wax like Best of Show from Griot's Garage. However, to get those looks will require more work and will not last as long. It all depends on what you want.

    I have no experience with Zymol.
