Not sure where this goes so I put these questions here. I have been wondering why AG does not carry Zymol products? Does AG have any plans to make these products available at any time?

Pinnacle Souveran Platnium Elite Limited Edition w/ free refills for life and a special note included that says "SUCKER" for buying our 500.00 per ounce special edition wax. Trust me you'll see a huge difference, and its derived from not only #1 Grade Carnauba, but bat guapo from the island of Bermuda. Please consider feet application, as your ruff toes and nails will majically appear new, soft, and supple to boot !

To comment on the Zymol, we had it many years ago, when I first started working for the Geek. I do not remember it being a big seller for us and as for us carrying it, well I do not see that in the future. We are always listen to our customers, but Zymol does not appear to be in the future line up.

Short extract from an article by Terry Freiberg CMA
The history of Pinnacle goes back to 1991. At that time, I owned a black Mercedes and, like most enthusiasts, thought I wanted a bright shiny finish. My eyes were opened when I purchased a jar of Zymol® Destiny™ wax. Destiny made my car look fabulous! It wasn't a bright shine but rather a deeper, darker shine. My car's black paint rippled like it was under water. I think I paid around three hundred bucks for that jar of wax. (It now sells for over $400.00 for an 8 oz. jar!)
Through this experience, I came to realize that there was more to shine than just light reflection. Some colours, black, red, dark blue, deep yellow for example, look better with this "deeper, darker, wet-like" shine.
A light went on! Every wax manufacturer was promoting a brighter, more dazzling shine. No one, with the exception of Zymol, was addressing a different type of shine just for dark colour vehicles. I reasoned that if I could create a wax similar to Zymol's Destiny at a "more affordable" price, I'd have a winner. With Destiny as my benchmark, I hired a chemist and we spent the next 15 months developing a super wax for dark colour vehicles. Mid 1992, I felt we had a wax that, nine times out of ten, couldn't be distinguished from our benchmark wax in a blind, side-by-side comparison. In some areas we even surpassed our benchmark wax. Because we're in Florida, we crafted Souveran to be extremely haze and streak-resistant even in climates of high heat and humidity. It wipes on and buffs off easily with every car coming out perfect. In September of 1992, I launched the Pinnacle Car Care line with Souveran Paste Wax as our signature wax for dark colour vehicles. The rest, as they say is history with Pinnacle Souveran Paste Wax being used on hundreds if not thousands of show and concourse winners all the way up to Pebble Beach!

Several other companies mandate that their resellers charge a specific price for their products. The resellers get around this by offering coupons.
