For ALL Believers and Especially NON Believer of Zaino...

Freshly Zainoed 04 Black 6mt. It was a cloudy outside but you get the picture.






It took me 12 hours to do the whole car (10 for car alone) but the results are second to none. I have been using Zaino for a year now but this was the first time that I didn't rush into it. Just follow the procedure on the website and if you have a day or two to spare, it'll look like this after every wash.

I'd like to know how you guys wash your cars after applying Zaino. Do you just wash it with the Zaino showcar wash? Any other zaino applications after washing it?

I see a lot of people posting pictures of their cars after using whatever brand wax, polish ,etc... they pefer saying "look the results prove it". However, the only thing it proves is that nearly every product out there can make your car look awesome.

Out of curiosity, how many hours did you spend on the Clay Bar part of your day? In a recent thread I said I had spent ~6 hours Claybaring and a few folks commented that this was way too long.

Again I have no reference as to how long it should take, and I don't believe I'm obsessed with Zainoing but in the Fall when I do it again I would fully anticipate another ~6 hours co Clay Bar effort. I found the application and removal of the Zaino itself to be quite easy. The Clay Bar was the real effort.

Sheesh. The guy spent all day on his car and he was justifiably proud of the result. He made no mention of any other procducts.

The need you feel to post the above suggests to me that you use a system other than Zaino..

I didn't claybar that long. It woulda been 10 hours on the car itself b/c the wheels took 2 hours washing and drying.

reflection shots are great and all but how many of you check your work under direct sunlight? i'd like to see if you guys can get those blacks looking great w/out the swirls i've really got my work cutout for me with a ton of friends w/ black cars that I work on. but looks great. to each their own on if they prefer zaino or whatever... everyone has their preferences. it's whatever makes you feel good.

I check my black coupe under sunlight. Some minor swirls, but I'll be doing another round or DACP and NXT within a couple weeks here to try to knock them out before winter. Then I'll hit again next year! LOL

My nieghbors all think I'm crazy, but at the same time, I'm always getting "nice car" comments....
