I can't speak for Menzerna, but judging by my results, and experience with Zaino, I would HIGHLY reccomend it. The results speak for themselves on 18 year old paint:

I use Menzerna polishes (Intensive Polish and PO106FF) and Zaino sealants.

Menzerna polishes produce consistent, top-notch results. Zaino sealants are pretty easy to use, have a great appearance, and are extremely durable.

It depends. What is it that you what to acomplish? I've never used Zaino so I can't comment on it. However if you're looking for a polish to remove swirls and such I would have to agree with ZaneO, Menzerna is a really good choice.

Menzerna user here and love the results. The FMJ is great, dries fast and comes off very easy, but is spendy. I still have some old Zaino I use and it still is a great product.

Menzerna for cutting dowm swirls and clarifying paint.

Zaino for topping off your clearcoat work and making your paint pop

I use z5, and z2. I alternate between the 2. I think they have a new z2 out, that is better to work with than the origonal, and i've heard people have had better results with it.
