Went to autopia.com and read the wax/polish/sealant reviews, and decided to try Klasse products instead of Zaino, because they seemed easier and got pretty good reviews. Used Klasse All-In_One, went on pretty easy, did 2 coats in an hour and a half. Then put a coat on of Klasse sealant glaze. Came out looking very nice! Smooth, shiny.

I didn't think the anthracite would really shine up as much as it did, but it looks really nice!

The All-In-One is supposed to last 4-8 months, all I supposedly need to do now is a coat of Sealant Glaze every month or two as needed.

Around $48 including shipping for a multi-year supply.

Thanks for the feedback because the 4+ hour Zaino process has had me thinking about alternatives.

Try NXT Tech wax from Meguiars. They work great, easy on and easy off. $15 for a bottle. I tried it on my TL, my 92 Accord and my wife's black Montero. Of course it shines best on the black Montero.

I tried NXT on my Anthracite -- looks good. mrtech, are you going to the SJ meet?

soljc - What 4-hour Zaino process are you talking about? It takes me only 15 minutes to Zaino my car and 5 to wipe it off, no power buffer needed.

If you are talking about doing 3 coats with Dawn wash, claying, gloss enhancer - etc. - these steps are totally optional and will benefit other polishes as well.

There is NOTHING faster and easier than Zaino.

Automophile,

Just curious...which Zaino product do you use? And how often do you apply it - every wash?

Glad to hear it is not an ordeal. And if I recall your pictures before the gallery went down, your car looked great!
