Last month we introduced our readers to Zymöl’s waxID™ custom care for Corvettes. The waxID service allows you to customize Zymöl’s naturally derived ingredients in a formula based on your Corvette’s unique needs. To create your custom wax, Zymöl asks a series of questions about your car that includes the info and history of your exterior paint, your driving habits, and the environment you live in to create a single-custom-formulary wax mixed specially for your vehicle. Your Corvette is different…shouldn’t your wax be?

Zymöl is offered exclusively through Amazon and CorvetteBlogger readers can save $50 off the regular price of $149. Click here to Start Your Custom Wax!

In this sponsored message, Zymöl founder and CEO Chuck Bennett takes us back to the creation of the unique wax and the inspiration of how it was derived from natural ingredients.
