I'm with you. I love the Z9 and Z10 products . . . Great stuff! Actually, those are the only two Zaino products, which I use.

Same here. I really like Z2pro, and Z8 is one of the best QD's there is, but I was never really happy with the look they gave me and they are kind of expensive. Just personal opinion, though - Zaino looks incredible on some colors for sure.

tire dressing works nice around that plastic thing near the side mirrors?

Yep, and on your door trim, and if you have an 03/04 sedan, the rockers/underspoilers. Just wipe it on really thin or wipe on/wipe off for more sheen. That stuff goes a long way, so I use it on all my trim. Still have like 1/2 a bottle after 2 years, too.

lol Glad to see I'm not the only one who's tried it on their plastic trim.

I've hit almost all the exterior black trim with it once at this point. Notice the black plastic and wiper arms, etc. and how new they still look. They didn't look that new until I used the Zaino tire dressing on them.

Oh ya, wiper arms and that plastic below the windsheild that they are mounted on - the tire dressing works awesome there too. Nice catch GT-Ron.

one question, I'm totally new at detaling so forgive my ignorance.
Just got my brand new G a few hrs ago =)
Heres the question, does Zaino just make the car shine, or does it protect the car? Does it take the place of wax n stuff?

Congrats on the new purchase

Zaino makes the car shine MUCH better and as well as the same time protects it. Zainos are made to last, for a while. just think of it like this, every time you zaino your car you put on a think layer of clearcoat. overtime as you zaino your car can end up with 30+ coats of zaino! it does a great job of removing normal swirly marks and what such.

So, do I have to strip the wax(if any , not sure if the dealer waxed the car) then only apply zaino?

What do I strip the wax with?

The zaino site mentions that I have to use Z-1 before applying Z-2? Is that true?

also, where can I get these 100% cotton made in USA towels?
