'Detailed cars for years, and have used many multi-stage products in my lifetime. This past weekend, I ventured into Zaino land, and am quite impressed.

Check these out for an idea of what Zaino looks like on Twilight Blue.

Enjoy!

Very nice - welcome to the Zaino club.

G35 Coupe. Diamond Graphite, Graphite, Premium and wheel and Tire package. Zaino Baby.

 

Damn that looks like glass. Good job. I just joined the club last week. I'm equally impressed.

 

Twilight Blue is a stunning color, and I'm glad I chose it. You will really enjoy yours, too!

It is a bit high maintanance (like black), but with the Zaino and a California Duster, it is much easier to maintain.

Now if I could only control the Brake Dust! ~

I believe I spent about 3 1/2 hours total. 'Will likely perform the ritual two more times over the next month. Though it is amazingly glossy now, even after a few washes. Believe it or not, it is difficult to keep water on it!

It has approximately 3 Layers currently. I am considering 9 total, but will gauge that based on the results of the next application. This stuff is pretty impressive, and it seems to be quite durable (bugs/washing).

After reading and seeing the results of Zaino on your car, what exactly is the name of the Zaino product you are using.

I have had my car for one month and want to keep it looking good forever...what exactly are you doing? Any suggestions on the breakdust?

 

Hey Lummer,

This is text that I cut/pasted from a recent email to a buddy of mine:

"Actually, its not much different than using regular wax.

You have to start out by stripping the old wax/sealants by using Dawn dishwashing detergent. Dawn cuts the old wax with no problem.

After that you claybar the car to prep the paint surface, using a detailing mist as the lubricant.

From there, you mix the Zaino (Z2) with what they call ZFX, which is really just a catalyst to speed the curing process of the product.

After you apply the Z2/ZFX mix (just like regular wax), you let it dry (30 minutes or so) and then use the Z6 Gloss Enhancer spray. I followed this process three times.

And that's really it!

This stuff lasts about a year, or so they claim, but the rants and raves on just about any car forum support that. Haven't had a single problem with water spots, and cleaning the car is soooo much easier now. I would recomend that you use microfiber towels though. You can get them at Walmart for about $5.00. They rock."

Well, that's about it, but let me know if you have other questions. - Take care

After washing with DAWN, do I have to make sure the car is 100% dry (and no water marks) before applying Z2 ??

I am worried that applying Z2 on top of "watermarks" will make difficult to get rid of...

Thanks
