Had a go of both of these waxes on my TR gti and for me its gotta be zymol glasur ,did a little test with a few waxes including these two and zymol glasur lasted longer than af desire and to me looked a much deeper shine and gloss, pound for pound im still to find a better wax than glasur.... but hey thats just me

Both are great really - I use them a lot.

I'd go Glasur on darker colours or red and Desire on lighter colours...

I used to be indecisive.......... but now I'm not so sure!

Haha good old Russ, now the poor guy will have to spend out on both  :P

I'd go for Glasur but haven't honestly tried Desire so can't comment on that, I just know how good Glasur is!

What would be the advantage of one of these waxes over something far cheaper like Collinite 476s?

Personal preferences.

90% of the final effect is in the prep - washing/claying/polishing etc. The final 10% or so is from the LSP. Sometimes the product has better water-repelling properties, easier to apply/buff, duration of protection, etc.

Some swear by them. Others state the likes of Collies provides a similar effect for much less.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
