do u come from the leeward side in the morns round 4 - 5am? i do and that is the worse roads/commute evaaaaar. rock chip dynasty brah. if you roll up the windows, turn the radio off, and listen. all you'll hear is rocks hitting ur car. no effin joke. that commute sux a hole. if u leave later, like 7/8am, it aint that bad. i don't leave later because i hate traffic. i get off at 2pm and love the fact i can actually get into 6th gear, lol.

U used Zaino on my dark blue maxima and my black 350z but I wasn't happy with the product's performance here in Hawaii. I don't know if it's the distributor watering it down or what but it just didn't seem to hold up as well here as in the Mainland and while I was in Guam. I still have a lot of the carwash, swirlmarket and polish in the bottle and ZFX I'll sell them to you if you want them. I have been using Turtle Wax ICE and Mequires instead of the Zaino.

wierd mine lasts so long. even after a couple of months with no wash, just wash the car, a quick wipedown with Z6 and it's all shiny again. The key to getting it to last is no automatic car washes, no wax and apply several coats. The first weekend I did it I think I put on 5 coats of Z2, then another 2 a week later, kept adding coats each week for about a month. Now I'll put on a single coat maybe twice a year. I know they got some new stuff out but I haven't tried them yet. The leather conditioner is good too.

That's a good link Diesel, how'd you know about that place?

They only ship Zaino to Hawaii customers and we also have the option to pick it up at Hawaii Truck Concepts.

I've used Zaino for years and liked the shine. But since I bought my polisher, I don't use it anymore. Get better results. Zaino gives a nice reflective, plastic shine. Other brands give a wetter, deeper, glossy look.

check out Marvin at htc in waipio. he carries zaino too.

bottom line is no matter what product you use, it all comes down to prep work. If the prep work is crappy, whatever you put over it will enhance it, good or bad.

Zaino Leather in a Bottle

I used the zaino leather cleaner and followed up with the conditioner yesterday. I drove to work this morning and the back of my shirt smells like the conditioner lol!
