Re: zymol?
Wash the car properly (two bucket method, working from the top and working down),
clay it fully (gets all the hidden contaminents out)
Assess paitnwork for any tar spots etc.. (make sure all these are gone!)
Seal the paint. ( use something like Klasse or Carlack polish for this)
Then your ready for the wax.
Apply with an applicator pad on the whole car and leave half hour for it to glaze over, buff off with a microfibre cloth
You use it just like any other wax. But like evereything, it's all about the prep work, there's no use applying it to dirty paint.

Re: zymol?
Which Zymol wax is it you have?
Is it the light blue liquid stuff in a bottle from Halfords, or a tub of hard wax from somewhere online?

Re: zymol?
Use the stuff from halfords for now... Wait until the weather gets better before using the expensive stuff.
One, it doesn't adhere to the paint properly if applied under 18 degrees C and two, it's a bit of a waste because at this time of the year cars get filthy as soon as you drive them, so you won't see the benefit.
