ME LIKES ME ZAINO…..

84 Degrees here in Pa today, so I treated my baby to a nice coat of Z-2 wonderstuff.

What do you think ?

me like what I see , my person says I am jealous , he added I am a lazy ass to spend 4-6 hr waxing my CLS every other week.

Therefore, It is nice to get your CLS in show room, shiny, but If you make my CLS like yours, you will find an extra $50 to spend

Nashua,

Only the first application of the year takes really long because you need to use the 2-step “polish-lok” stuff.

It only took me about 2 1/2-hours today and that included doing the tires, wheels, vacuum inside & Rain-X the glass.

Nice pics Shawn. I got a chance to put my first coat of Z1 and Z2 last weekend. I didn't put Zaino on today but I did give my CL-S a good wash.

Me like Zaino as well...

Maybe. I use one but only when there is very light dirt/dust on the car. If the pollen layer is thick the duster may not give the desired result.

This time of year makes it hard to keep clean for very long with the pollen from the trees. You get a light rain when that crap is on your car and you have yourself a mess.

soopa-

If you have waterspots, you're NOT using Zaino! On my previous ride, 99 Chrysler 300M, I used to put the car in the garage wet, only to find it dry the next morning with NO waterspots! I was VERY skeptical about Zaino when I first discovered the Edmunds TH section on polishes. It sounded like an infomercial to me. Then I thought- could EVERYONE praising Zaino be a shill? I decided that in 39 years of cleaning my cars and using scads of different products, what was ONE more? Been using Zaino since the summer of 1998 and love it. Once the initial steps are taken, it's a BREEZE to keep that wet look shine like you see in the pics above. I now have 4 coats of Z-2/Z-6 and one of Z-5/Z-6 on my car and I've only had it since 3/28/01! LOL... I couldn't wait to get it on my CL. I'm not sorry. Take a look at my 300M- the shine is incredible!

I'm with Nashua, I don't want to spend my days off washing my car, but it does look real nice, so I'd pay a reasonable amount for it. So does anyone in Miami know of a place that'll do a good job for a reasonable price??

If you use the Zaino Z-1/Z-2/Z-6, the brake dust will just wash right off easily.

Thanks. It was the people here that had nothing but praise for Zaino and seeing pics of Shawn's car many months ago that made my decision easy on what product to use.
