Zaino question/tips? Just got done with the Zaino clay bar just as the sun set. When it comes back up I get to the fun stuff. My question for you Zaino users is... Do I use Z-2 or Z-5 first? Should I go Z-5, Z-2, Z-5? Or do I just use multiple coats of one or the other? I have plenty of fine scratches especially on the front that I want to rub out which is what the Z-5 is for. Any other Zaino tips?

Z-5 first then Z-2. Spray the applicator down with Z-6 then put Z-5/2 & throught polishing gives you more shine. Z-6 gloss car down between coats & after final coat. Zaino is awesome, yet Z-5 after numerous coats will cover up fine scratches. I buff the scratches out with a porter cable.

Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. I did exactly, well almost, as DavidH426 said. I did not get the final coat of Z6 on as darkness beat me to it, and then rain today. Even after I thought it could not look any better, each coat looked even more spectacular. A few final questions, and I don't mean to sound dumb here but... what is a porter cable, where do I get one and how do I use it? Thanks!

Just GOOGLE "Porter Cable" and the first hit you get will be their website.
And dont worry....your question was not a dumb one.
Oh.....if you have not tried the Grand Finale Spray Seal...I highly recommend it. Use it after the Z6.
