Default Zaino ?

From the directions on his website I can never determine the exact amount to use!
OK...If I am applying either Z2 or Z5 mixed with the ZFX accelerator how much of the 2 ounce mixture bottle should be used for one coat?
I just applied one coat of the accelerated Z5 and I used a little less than one ounce of it, is this to much, to little or about right? This was on my Camaro BTW.

When I used Zaino, I used about an ounce, maybe a little less
That's what I disliked about Zaino, all the mixing, I just wanted to put it on and take it off, not play chemist

I like to pretend I'm a mad scientist when I'm mixing it. BAWAHAHAHA!!!!












Actually, I can get two applications from one ounce.

On the back of the ZFX accelerator box is the instructions. You mix 4-5 drops of ZFX per 1 ounce. No more than 10 drops of ZFX per bottle(2 ounces). Normally I can polish my SS twice with just half a bottle of ZFX & Z2 mixed together.

One ounce (half the mixing bottle) is good for 3 full coats on an F-body. If you aren't getting that, you're using too much and wasting product.

"All the mixing" takes 4 drops and 1 minute. It's really not difficult...especially considering that only needs to be done twice a year.
