ZAINO, Bro.

Believe it.

Accept no substitutes.

If you want it to look it's best, spend the $$$.[sm=shades.gif]

I use ICE on occassion but have found it doesn't last too long. It is easy to put on/get off and doesn't leave a colored residue in panel seams and cracks, etc. When I'm not in a hurry and feel more ambitious, I use Meguier's Gold Class. Haven't tried Zaino.

Looked at Zainowebsite. I'm thinking I should probably get the Z2 plus the accelerant. What do you think?

I just wanted to "try one product".[sm=badidea.gif]

Went for the All-In-One.

Liked it.

DERN!!!!!

Couldn't stand it! LOVE rubbin' on my Corvette!

Ordered up the Z2Pro (polish) and the Z6 Gloss Enhancer, and the Z10(?) Leather In A Bottle.[sm=happy046.gif]

That arrived a week ago. LOVE THAT EVEN MORE! SHE'S PRETTY NOW!!!! Interior now as good as the exterior.

Ordered up the ZFX accelerant so I can put on more than one coat of Z2 at a time, also ordering the Z7 car wash, unwilling to trust my other soap. The ZFX allowed me to put 2 more coats of the Z2 polish on within an hour. Total of 3 layers of Z2 now.

One more item to get next month.....Z8 Grand Finale. Looking forward to that!!!


I woulds saved myself some shipping expense if I'd have done it all in one order.....but...[sm=loser.gif]

Sent off a check by mail to Zaino last Thursday. UPS brought a box today. I thought "What is that?" as I never expected the items to be here so quick. BUT.. Here's to UPS and the USPS for speedy delivery. Anyway, I got Z2, ZFX, Z5, and Z8 (plus the decal and free applicator). After a quick read of the directions, it looks like a day or more of wax on -wax off for me. I sure hope this stuff lives up to the reputation you guys have posted about it. We'll see, I guess. Probably draft the wife to help, or play dumb like Huck Finn didand con herinto doingthe whole thing.
