Default Zaino results

I'd have to say i was very skeptical on this product but wow it def holds up to its talk and well worth its price. I did did 3 coats(all with zfx) of z5 (1/2 oz used) and 3 coats of z2(1 oz used), between coats used z6. I went a little light on the z5, i think but results were still good. For clay bar i used a sonus and also used sonus drying towels and polishing towels. Sonus towels are very good worth the extra couple of dollars. Clay bar to me is claybar it did its job. As far as drying time and how easy the polish came off no complaints then again i am in az so its hot and humidity was only around 40%. If anyone is debating on using Zaino just try it($85 kit is best bet i'd say). Oh yea i also tried Zaino's glass cleaner, worked well and i swear its got some colgate toothpaste in it.

Results

















yea there are a lot of pics...couldnt figure out what one was my favorite...still cant either. What do you think looks best

looks amazing man!
To those zaino freaks, is zaino a good product to use even if my paint isnt perfect? I have some swirls, some scratches, chips. Should i try to better my paints condition first? I dont know much about zaino, but it seems like it only makes the paint shine but it doesnt fix it. if that makes sense

That looks good...I should look into getting some of that, it's hard to keep the light swirl marks out of the black paint.

Proper prep work (ie. claying and polishing) is always going to make the biggest difference in the appearance of your finish.

Zaino makes two products - ZPC Fusion and ZAIO - that will help with the process of removing swirls, scratches, oxidation, etc. In order to achieve the best results, you would need to use these products or similar products from another brand before applying a wax/sealant.
