#6230 of 6239 Spring has Sprung! by laurasdada Apr 16, 2008 (5:08 pm)
It's officially spring: First handwash (Z-7) followed by an application of instant shine (Z-6). I gotta again give props to Zaino. It's been 6 months of New England winter since my last application of Z-2, but after the wash still a great shine! And bettered with the Z-6. Just good stuff.
#6231 of 6239 HELP - Bird Turd by benzserviceguy May 10, 2008 (7:43 pm)
HELP - my kid's 2 layer ZAINOed car had bird turd on it for over a week and now, it has etched into the paint .. WHAT TO DO???   Any suggestions would be welcomed.   I don't own a porter cable orbiter polisher and have most of the ZAINO products.   I would also be willing to use NON - Zaino products if needed.  PLEASE HELP !!   -SKIP- Replies to this message: jju (May 11, 2008 7:39 am)

Replying to: benzserviceguy (May 10, 2008 7:43 pm) You're going to need an abrasive and if you have Z-PC you might be able to get it out by hand. It's hard to judge without seeing it.
#6233 of 6239 Looking for helpful information by moocow1 May 28, 2008 (1:02 pm)
Hi everyone,     I've never actually spent much time on taking care of my car's paint before, but I have a 1 month old car that I want to keep looking good this time around. Zaino's products are a little confusing on their website. My goal is to find something easy to use and lasts as long as possible. Basically which of their products would I need to polish and then seal for a long time? I don't need anything fancy or perfect looking.

Replying to: moocow1 (May 28, 2008 1:02 pm) YOU HAVE OPTIONS and probably the reason you are confused.   If you want to just "protect it and forget it" every 6 months, I would recommend that you go with Z-AIO, Z-6, Z-7, & the 314 applicator. You can substutute any car wash for Z-7 AS LONG AS IT CONTAINS NO WAX.

Replying to: moocow1 (May 28, 2008 1:02 pm) Yes, Zaino has added quite a few products the last couple of years...   The prior suggestion would work, but from the older school of Zaino, you could use Z-2 (w/ZFX for quicker cure time) with Z-6 for gloss enhancement, quick details. Z-7 is the car wash.   My car is dark blue, so I use Z-5/zfx to cover up swirls/light scratches with the final coat (several final coats!) of Z-2/zfx, shinier. Z-6 in between coats.
#6236 of 6239 Independent testing of Zaino? by crosby1 Jun 30, 2008 (11:10 am)
Consumer Reports has regulary tested car waxes but never Zaino. In 2002 Guru did the only significant test of waxes I've found, giving the nod to Zaino. I have used Zaino Z2 with ZFX since 2004 and have never found a wax that will last nearly as long. Has anyone seen any significant, recent tests of Zaino or of vinyl/rubber preservative?
#6237 of 6239 Zaino loyalists by obyone Sep 24, 2008 (5:13 pm)
Has anyone tried this product?   Ultima Car Care vs. Zaino Bros   Just curious. Replies to this message: tmart (Sep 24, 2008 10:17 pm) jju (Sep 25, 2008 2:05 pm)

Replying to: obyone (Sep 24, 2008 5:13 pm) Haven't tried it but the price would probably keep me from trying. And to think I thought Zaino was expensive.

Replying to: obyone (Sep 24, 2008 5:13 pm) I have a friend that tried Ultima and shared his results with me.   Ultima has a different look than Zaino. Where Zaino highlights the shine (results brighter than with a wax product), Ultima is "cloudier". Also, the product does not last as long as Zaino. It's great if you don't expose the car to the weather (sun, rain, etc.)
