MNCLS-

DON'T hesitate! You'll have NO problem ordering it from Sal! In between the rain yesterday, I put on the first coat of Z-1/Z-2/Z-6 on my new San Marino Red CL-S! I did the Dawn, clay treatment first. Today I washed it again because it poured in So. CT last night. Today I put on coat two of Z-2/Z-6. That wet look shine is starting to show! Can't wait to put on several more coats of Z-2/Z-6. I know what it's going to look like because I used Zaino on my 99 Chrysler 300M- Candy Apple Red! I didn't have the digital camera so I couldn't take any pics, but I'll try next week IF it doesn't rain again!

(See pictures above)


Ha Ha -- I see that so many coats were added, that the car changed color from red to blue and re-morphed itself

Do you know how many coats I will need before my silver changes and I grow new body work? (j/k)

BTW -- all kidding aside, the blue car does look like it has a pretty "fat" coat on it.

I have 3 of Z2 and 3 full coats of Z5. I also Z5'd some light scratches a few extra times and it did a pretty good job of getting them out! I love the way that water beads off the car...

Here are some pics that I took Saturday. I have 7 coats of Z2/Z5/Z6 and two coats of the new experimental ZFX(?) that's coming out soon. Dries fast and can do multiple coats in one day. Unfortunately, I only had time to do two coats of the new stuff or maybe my car could look like the Firebird above! :p

I was confused about the "new experimental ZFX(?) that's coming out soon."

New experimental?? I've been using that for at least a year! Then I checked the date.... WTF?
