New Pics of my car Zaino'd with WW Lip installed.

http://www.showtz.com/acura/

I put on 4 coats of zaino this weekend and it really shows! Check out some of the reflections you can see when you look at the full size pictures. The wings west lip is finally painted perfectly and installed. The sub install has been done for a while now. Its just the right amount of bass. I have stock interiors with a pioneer premiere MP3 deck. Let me know if you have any questions or comments!

I love the Zaino! I put 4 coats on mine last week and it is amazing! I drive through the Orlando downpurs and the water runs right off. It doesnt leave water spots or anything. I have never seen a wax do that.

nothing makes a black car shine like zaino IMO, just wish it wasn't so tedious

nice ride

like CLpower said nothing makes the car shine better than a nice coat of zanio

but i love using my mothers clay bar and a nice wax and sometimes a triple wax but this is only a once in every 3-5 month thing but it makes the car glow ad lasts for almost 2 months with only a wipe down and a quick spray like a meguirs quick detailer

Since it has been zaino'd before I didn't need to strip any wax. I used Meguiars Quick Detailer along with a mothers clay bar to prep the paint on the entire car. I had my brother (pro detailer) wet sand scratches from about 4 spots. He then applied a 3M polish for dark vehicles to the areas he sanded. I went over the car with Z1 Show Car Polish Lok, Z2 Show Car Polish for Clear Coated Car Finishes(with ZFX quick dry additive)Z5 Show Car Polish for Swirl Marks and Fine Scratches, and finally another layer of Z2. I will add two more layers of Z2 soon. On the interior I used zaino Z9 leather cleaner and Z10 leather in a bottle. http://www.zainostore.com/

if you clayed it you basically did what the dawn wash does and stripped away the wax.

Your right, claying does clear away the wax but I didnt have any wax on the paint since I Zaino'd it last year. I think the zaino instructions say to use dawn if you have any type of wax on your clear coat. Do you use a wax or polish on your paint? Which brand/type? It looks great!
