Where'd you get yours at? I hear great things about zaino products but can't find where to buy it anywhere!

Did you have water spots? If so, how effectively did it remove them?

Is this new swirl remover just a filler, or does it actually remove the swirls? I too own a black car, and am always on the look out for a good swirl remover

no water spots here. i just have a TON of swirl marks and this stuff took care of them like nothing that i have used before. i am also yet to do the whole car that was just one spot on my fender.

i'm pretty sure that it is an abrasive and not a filler. the paint in that area seems alot smoother than it did before, like it removed contaminents and such. the paint almost feels like it does after you claybar it.

If the compound has a grit in it, then it is probably a remover, but I think zaino products are fillers. I could be wrong.

that's what i thought too, so i checked their website from the link above and it says that it contains no fillers or oils. so i guess that it's an abrasive.

I was wrong. It says it is a remover, not a filler.

I also had a lot of swirl marks before, and it turned out that the swirls were from old wax that hadn't been removed. So, I did a stripping and rewaxed and all my swirls were gone. I used a strong concentration of dawn dish soap w/ warm water as the "stripper" You can check out the results in my post here....

If you haven't done a "stripping" in a while, then you may just have a build up of old wax that needs to be removed. I would try this first, before any abrasives IMO. But I'm sure that stuff works wonders!

wow, that stuff made your car look awesome! unfortunately for me all of my swirls are in the clear coat and not just wax build up. i do the wash with dawn and clay procedure at the beginning of every spring/summer, and still always had swirls until now. your car looks great though!

Damn that is pretty amazing. I'll have to give it a try, thanks for the 411.

Yes, this is a new abrasive swirl remover/paint cleaner product from Zaino. It actually removes defects and does no filling...what you see is what you get. The new product is meant to better complete the Zaino line by introducing a prep product and eliminate the need for a Dawn wash. It will remove any wax/sealant on the surface on the areas you use it, so there will be a need to reapply protection to those areas.

Damn, that's amazing results with just a test by hand I might have to try some of this stuff. I have a bunch of swirls/scratches on my paint as well (hardly noticeable, but i see it) and I was thinking about trying something. Would this pan out better than ScratchX? Just wondering.

And by the way... I haven't done a "stripping" in a long time either... guess I haven't been drinking enough when I go out

no comparison to scratch x. this stuff, from what i've seen is in a league of it's own. me and a buddy of mine are doing his 97 TA right now. we will post pics when it is done. it is looking awesome so far. we just got done clay barring it and just started with the swirl remover. believe me when i tell you, his car is SCRATCHED and it is removing them like nothing.
