Hey Zane, is there a good polish I can get locally and then still cover with Z2?

You can use any polish out there, as long as you do a 50/50 alcohol/water wipedown after using it.

Thanks bro, any recommendations of something I could pick up at an auto store? Also I will be applying it by hand if that makes any difference

You're probably not prepping it right. I have never had a problem with Zaino.

Should be able to find Meguiar's or 3M polishes locally.

+1 for the tech wax. It seems to deepen and inrich the color rather than just make it shiny. In my experienc it works better on darker colored paints.

Check out my link

I am more than happy with Zaino, check out my link, my black TA was Zaino'ed in July and it now December and it's just wearing off. I am stationed in Holland and it rains damn near everyday, summer was over in late June! I think if someone's zaino isn't working, they had to f@ck up the application or their paint is far beyond any repairs wax and polish can fix???

I agree Meguiars NXT is AWESOME, works like a charm on my black paint.

My brother told me to try out Turtle Wax ICE(he always uses it on his 00' GTP), I wasn't pleased at first but it grew on me, I just use it for the rubber moldings now

, and NXT on the paint.
