ArN 2000 TL

Well, this week was very busy for me. I got my Zaino products in the mail (very quick turn around) and started with my car first. On mine I followed the instructions by NSXNEXT (which where EXTREMELY helpfull and time saving). Also I broke out the electric laf blower and I am sold on this concept. I will use this all the time to dry the car because it works great around the spoiler, emblems, and door jams and even around the whole front grill assembly. I even used the leather cleaner and conditioner as well (which works great). Here are the results of my car:

Then once my father saw the results he wanted me to do his truck (00' Black Tahoe). The only difference with his was I used the Z5 instead of the Z2. I figured what the hell.....




All I can say is black Trucks are a PITA!!!!!

Then my mother said that I didn't love her because I didn't do her car so like a sucker I did




Overall I am very happy with this product. I had gotten 3 compliments so far. One with my dads truck at 7-11. The guy thought it was brand new and i just picked it up. Then the cool thing was the look on his face when i told him it was a 2000 with 22k on it

I have the rest of the pics on my site at http://andrew.icansp.com:8080/gallery/

wow, that zaino does work miracles dont it. very nice job. how long did it take you to do a car?? which products did you use??

Do you have any before pictures?

ArN 2000 TL

Ya, its not bad at all To do my car it took me about 5-6 hours because i did the clay bar and also did the entire interior as well with the leather cleaner and stuff. One of the reasons it takes so long is to let the product dry (about an hour and change) before it can be buffed off...not to mention I did two coats

I used the products in this order for MY car:

1. Wash car with dawn...quick dry
2. Clay Bar
3. Wash with small amount of dawn again and full dry with leaf blower
4. Apply Z-1
5. Apply Z-5
6. Wait about an hour, buff off
7. Spray enhancer used
8. Applied Z-5 again, waited then buffed

While I was waiting I used that time to do the leather and my interior.

Unfortunately I do not, but Zaino is amazing. If I do anymore cars I will be sure to do before pics (neighbors are offering $$$ for me to do their cars as well since all 3 at my house are shining ).

Arn, if you want to put on multiple coats within a few hour window, you should use the zaino flash accelerator in which it instantly cures, thus, allowing you to put on mulitple coats.

isn't Z5 for non-clearcoasted paint surface only? ....and Wow, I have a silver TL-s with Zaino..but it's not even half glossy as your car.

nice job with detailing...oh by the way did clay bar make any difference..visually? (i know it removes stuck on dirts and smooths it out)


beatiful.. I'm gonna go home and put more coats of zaino

Z3 is for non-clearcoated cars.

Looks spectacular.

Looks perfect. But I think I can do just as good with Meguiar's Gold Class.

I've been told to use Z2 instead of Z5 anyone know? I haven't purchased anything yet! Someone said to just buy Z1 + Z2 with the Dawn and that should do it!!!

ArN 2000 TL

It depends...what colors ir your car? Z2 is for lighter colored cars while Z5 is for darker color cars. Really all you need is Z1, Z2 or Z5, Z6 (Spray Enhancer...makes a DIFF), and a clay bar.

Thanks a lot but I have a SSM as well!!! Is that considered to be a dark color or light one any input would be great!

Z6? did you use that yet? and what does that do?

ArN 2000 TL

Light...use Z2.

Yes it is exactly what it says...a 'Spray Enhancer'
