Zaino advise, what to order??

Could those who are really into and comprehensive with Zaino please advise me on which items to purchase, I want to order now! And if you guys could describe your Zaino regiment exactly, I'd really appreciate it. I am thinking Z1,2,5,10 right now... anything else? Do i really need the "polish lok" pre cleaner? Also, do you guys buy their applicator pads or use somethign else to apply the polish. I have a black CLS with some swirl marks not many. IT is 5 weeks old now, do you think I need the clay bar?? Thanks ahead of time!
:p

The dawn wash process and the clay bar will make a big difference. But you will have to put aside a whole day to actually do it right. It will be a real pain in the a$$ to do, but you will be happy in the end. The pre-lok cleaner helps too.

The dawn wash is only done prior to the clay bar. Never wash your car continuously with dawn. Washing the car with dawn removes all the wax buildup and dirt/debris on the car. Won't harm the paint. The car should be squeaky clean (as stated by Zaino). Then you clay the whole car (which is the hardest thing to do considering the size of the bar and the car).
Did you read the 'Application' and 'Tips & Tricks' on the Zaino website? If not, try Zaino
This should give you more insight into the whole process. IF you have more questions, let me know.
