Altough commonly called like that, "anti-magnetic" is incorrect phrase. It would mean that the Zimmerit effectively nulled magnetic fields, though in fact it simply kept a distance between the metal surface and the magnetic mines so that they could not have been fixed on the vehicle. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Adonaszi ( talk • contribs)
Article currently states that marder IIIs and hornisse had zimmerit. Can anyone cite that? Thanks. DMorpheus ( talk) 15:37, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
This article could use some reliable sources. I tagged it. DMorpheus ( talk) 15:00, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
I have twice reverted references to zimmerit on the thin-skinned open-top SPGs Marder and Hornisse. I have never seen any reliable source making this claim and have never seen a photo of either vehicle type with zimmerit.
This raises the issue of the sourcing for the entire article, which is extremely weak anyway. I tagged the entire article a few weeks back. We really need a reliable source or two on this; currently we are relying on a single self-published web site that is simply not considered reliable by wikipedia standards.

I've found some published sources via google book search, and can preview some of the relevant pages. The most comprehensive reference is here: p.19, World War II Infantry Anti-Tank Tactics, By Gordon L. Rottman, Steve Noon, Martin Windrow, Osprey Publishing, 2005 ISBN 1841768421, 9781841768427. There are many other books with mentions, but they are mostly passing comments, and sometimes dates of start/end of usage for various tanks here. This is probably good enough for inline citations for some of the information. Hohum ( talk) 00:38, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
"Zimmerit" was the name of nearly all the products of "Zimmer & Co." in Berlin. I have myself seen the Commercial register of that firm in the Archives (Landesarchv Berlin). There were two groups of coatings called "Zimmerit": bituminous colors and coatings and the "Zimmerit" for Panzers.
