Question

JPS,

Having tried both Zaino and Blackfire, which one do you like more? I just tried Zaino for the first time recently, and I'm pleasantly surprised with the results. The shine sure lasts for a long time.

bebber -- I like them both.
IMO:
zaino is more durable and retains its superb shine easier.
blackfire is less reflective and deepens the color and still shines nicely.

On my ABP I prefer the look of BF. But if I had a chance to cover it in Zaino for the winter I'd go that route!

and Mother's again (on my previous car). I will be switching to either Zaino or Blackfire in the spring. The Mother's shine is just as good as Zaino (a buddy of mine at work has the same car [TL-S] but uses Zaino, neither car looks better then the other when they're all waxed), however, I'm switching b/c the Mother's does not last too long....

I used the whole works for Zaino: Dawn wash, claybar, Z7 (carwash), Z1 (primer), Z5 (scratch remover), Z2 (polish) and Z6 (polish touch-up), and also Z16 (tire polish) and Z14 (plastic polish). Then, for regular upkeep I use Z7, Z2, Z6 and Z16, and sometimes Z14.

Asiankidd: The initial outlay for the works was about $100, but then I use very little of everything after that. That Zaino stuff is pretty concentrated; I have to tell myself to use less of everything cause I keep overapplying the polish.

you can get it online at the Zaino site. I think bioyuki had Zaino on his car before switching over to Blackfire....if I remember correctly. He lives in SoCal, so you might want to try asking him.

I haven't seen it in any of the local shops before in LA, SG valley, or OC. I had to order mine through their website and send payment through snail mail since they don't take credit card yet.

If someone does know of a local distributor, I'd be interested for future orders.

Zaino now has ZFX. Its an accelerator agent to speed the drying time so you don't have to wait for 24 hours.
