Zaino for a Newb

Sorry if this has been answered before, but I did a search and there are so many posts regarding zaino I got a bit overwhelmed. I am thinking I might like to try some of their products after reading about the results that many of you have seen, but I don't know which products to use or where to get it.

I'm thinking I want to try the leather in a bottle, do I also need the spray cleaner? Which exterior products are best? I am starting from scratch, so advice would be appreciated. Also is there a retailer for these products in the Calgary area, or what is a good site to order from for Canadians? TIA

Christian

I don't think it's sold in stores. Try zainobros.com There's a few kits on there with all the stuff you need. If you just want the basics, get the ZFX, Z2, and Z5 to polish the outside. The spray detailer is optional, you really don't need it, but its nice. The leather in a bottle is great, get the cleaner and conditioner.

you should also read on their website their detailing tips. if you want a really advanced polish, then i'd suggest getting the kit with all the zaino products, clay bar, polish, mixing tubes, applicators, etc.

I haven't purchased from here since I buy from a Canadian website, but you maybe want to check these guys out. I visit their forums quite frequently.

The zaino products are awesome. I would get the Z-6 spray if you plan to also use the ZFX and do 3 coats at once. If you do more than one it's good to do a quick spray detail with Z-6 inbetween coats.

The only two sites that I have purchased from is eshine.ca and zaino.ca. I have had nothing but great things to say about both sites.

if you're in the GTA area, several "The Barber's Chair" carry nearly the full line of Zaino products. Don't ask me why though :P

Locations that I've been to that carry Zaino:

Square One
FairView Mall (sheppard & 404)
Vanghan Mills
