just ordered zaino for 1st time
 
i just ordered zaino for the first time i ordered z-2, z-5,and z-6, it seems this is the most common combo, in what order should i use these in. any other info would be helpful, i have a few coats of nxt should i leave it on there and give it a good wash or what.
thanks

Wash it with Dawn FIRST, and get anything and everything NOT ZAINO off before you apply it. That will yield you the best results! ;) Also, they have very detailed instructions for applying it on their website. I'm sure you're familiar with it, but it's www.zainobros.com Good luck, and post lots o' pics when you've completed your first coat or two! Do a before and after series or something.

Too bad dawn will not strip the NXT off your car, just like it won't strip Zaino off your car. You best best is to use a water/alcohol mix to clean the NXT.

Although I don't know why you would switch from one to the other, they both shine just as well as the other.

i dont know about using alcohol on my car but ill do my best

A 50/50 dilution of water and alcohol is common practice for removing residue from abrasives, polishes, etc. It won't harm anything and will take you down to bare paint. (Which is what you want, for the Zaino to bond to)

has anyone ever tried to put it over nxt?

I would do it right or not do it at all.

IF you are going to go zaino, do it right, like Zane said. Strip it down and start the process the way Zaino recommends.

I'm on their webpage now, and I have NEVER used this stuff before. Could you guys direct me to what items I should buy? Should I go with the same combination as him?

mean00SS 05-26-2004 12:01 PM

is this a good combo to use and what order do i use it in.

ZaneO 05-26-2004 12:08 PM

Use either Z5/ZFX or Z2/ZFX x 3 with Z6 spray between coats. Maintain it with Z7 car wash and Z6 Gloss Enhancer.

The Z-7 car wash is also a great product.
