Default Anybody Use Zaino?

If so, what do you use?

I'm thinking about some Z2 and Z6, along with some Z5 for my truck.

Should this cover me, or do I need something else? Thanks...

Trick question??? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_images/icons/tongue.gif" />

Do a search there is a TON of Zaino info out there, that may be why no one has replied.

Here is what I found:

1.) I started out by washing with Dawn.
2.) Clay bar
3.) Z 1 apply (lighty) NA with ZFX
4.) Z 5 apply
5.) Z 5 remove
6.) Spray Gloss Enhancer
7.) Remove Gloss Enhancer
8.) Repeat steps 3 thru 6
9.) Repeat steps 3 thru 6
10.) Z 2 apply
11.) Z 2 remove
12.) Spray Gloss Enhancer
13.) Remove Gloss Enhancer

Also, if this was the first time you used Zaino, you should put Z1 on as the first coat very *very* lightly.

It does take some practice to get the finish you want, and this is mainly learning to let everything dry completely (not an issue with ZFX).

As Andy has stated you need to add Z-1 to your list, as for Z-6 it's fine but it's no better the Mothers or Mequiars spray which you can get any place. I hate the Mop & Glow look that most tire dressings leave so I would recommend Z-16 for your tires.

Been using it for 5 years, best stuff I've ever tried in about 35 years of looking for the best.

I'd get the Z2 and Z-5 polish, Z-6 detail spray, Z-7 car wash, Z-18 clay bar and the ZFX additive.
