Still impressed by Zaino

[VaGT]

Some background...

Car was polished with Zaino in October. The last time I clayed it was last spring. The last time I used Z6 on it was months ago because I ran out. We had a pretty good winter. Had above normal snowfall. Car hadn't been washed in about a month because of all the rain we have had lately.

Today, I took it to a public wash bay and bucket washed it.. then used Z6 (detail spray).

Here are the results :-). I Love Zaino....

The Z6 restored the shine, but the Polish is what kept it there.

Not sure if I am going to get that done... I would have to rent a car, and I doubt my dealer would pay for that. The dealer would send me to a local place to get it done since they don't do body work / paint.

Zaino is sweet stuff! Wish my white shined like that!

Time to really seperate the men from the boys...


The inevitable happened. It rained the next day, but guess what?

It STILL beads water. (RainX on the Sunroof beads too, but I just did that).

Some day, when the Steelers win the SB (hopefully this year :D), I'll be sure to wear something Pirates along with the Championship garb to ward off claims of being a fair weather fan. Haha.


They are beginning to turn things around a bit. Ramirez finally learned how to hit a baseball again, and Fogg's great start coming off an injury was a great sign. Of course with baseball's economics, realistically, if you don't spend over 100 Mill, you have next to no chance. I just hope for a winning record.

how long do the zaino products last? like the 8oz bottles that you can buy from them. just wondering to see if i should order 2 to begin with or just 1 till i run out. this goes for all the zaino products i'de need. b/c i have yet to do it and i was just about to place an order for it. thanks guys

[iceman]

Order 1 bottle of the products you are interested. My first batch did 3 cars, my car MANY times, and I still have them (this is after over a year)

[Panacea]

I've put about 5-7 coats of z5 on my car and I still have about 1/2-3/4 of the bottle left (Don't know for sure, been a while since I checked).

I have had my polish for about a year and a half. I would guess I have half a bottle of Z5 left and I think I have used like 10-12 coats. I waste some too because I have ZFX, so some stays in the mixing bottle when I am done.

When I first bought it, a friend and I combined our order to save/split shipping, and we also split the bottle of Z1 and Z2. I still have about 2 ounzes of Z2 left.

One thing you have to learn to do with Zaino is to use very little. Once the applicator pad is moist with polish, it only takes a drop or two per section. A section being like the top half of one sedan door. You also use less polish if you prep the surface with a clay bar before starting. Once you get past the clay bar and or the first coat, it spreads so easily that you hardly use any.
