Does zaino actually look better on lighter cars?
I have seen zaino on black and NBM and it looks bad ***. But what about white or silver? my car is silver and i am just wondering if its worth all the troublem to use zaino, or just get some other good wax. anyone have any thoughts on this?

Re: Does zaino actually look better on lighter cars?
I have had two silver cars that I used Zaino on, my '02 Z28 and my '01 Audi A4. I would say that the effect is pretty subtle if you only do one or two coats, but the reflectiveness really increases with additional coats. I don't think it will ever be as striking as with a black car, but I think it is worth it. Plus, it really isnt that much trouble to apply Zaino, especially if you use ZFX; no more waiting between multiple coats.

My car is silver and so is my friends SS. We used to park next to eachother at work and you could really tell the difference at night. It's like everything was reflectiing off of my car. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

It works best on Black and NBM as you said, my 98 black Z looks like it has brand new paint, except some faded spots on my hood that I have to beat my paint guy over! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" />
I know all about Zainoholism, I use Z1 as an air freshener and Z6 as cologne... LMAO <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

just use some zaino, you'll be happy with the results, plus it stays clean that much longer since its not a true carnauba wax. i wasnt a believer until i did my first application, and now i wont do anything else. it looks great on metallic cars underneath the sun.

My son's Z is pewter and he'll use nothing but Zaino. Not only for the shine but the durability and protection it provides.

I know it's not a light color, but look at this shine. Zaino is simply amazing! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
