I'm doing the same thing once the reviews comes in. I'm a huge Zaino fan, but I've heard great things about Blackfire.

Probably going to order the Porter Cable buffer also.

Here's some info on Blackfire. Blackfire Review

Washing with Dawn and then claying should remove all the Zaino correct? Maybe Medallion Premium Paint Cleaner would help?

I think there's more to it than that. I'll try and remember to check w/Sal tomorrow. I've been pleased w/zaino but it tends to wash off quickly and 'stuff' sticks to it.

here's the email...


Hi Sal, how would I safely remove Zaino from my car? I've been using it for 1.5 years but it doesn't seem to clean up as good as some other products.
Bugs, bug poop, tar doesn't wipe off easily.




For removal of stubborn bug guts, bird droppings, tar, grease, etc....

Try Wd-40. Spray a little on the bug guts. Let soak for about 40 seconds and remove with a clean dry 100% cotton towel. Repeat if necessary. Then rinse with water to remove any oil residue from the Wd-40. Do not do this procedure in direct sunlight! Do not use any abrasive polish or compounds.
If you use a product that contains abrasives you will put swirls and fine scratches in your paint finish.

If the bug gits are still not coming off. You need to use Z-18 ClayBar.
If you need info on Z-18 ClayBar and its use. Check my web site

Some bug guts are very acidic and will eat right into the paint. If you have a couple of coats of Zaino on your car. At least the bug guts will eat into the Zaino first..


If you want to go back to Meguiars or whatever after using Zaino. Then you can just wax right over Zaino....

Thank You,
Sal Zaino
