I guess its time to move away from dusty Zaino, for my black car, and now try out klasse. Seems like its real easy to use and does a nice nice job with swirl marks, which is my main problem. Do I need to use dawn to strip all my Zaino off?

I've been using BlackFire for about 20 months now and I have yet to be let down.

Longevity is key. I doubt the human eye is going to be able to tell the difference in shine. Blackfire got good reviews on Autopia, except for it's longevity. For a polymer it fell short. Not to say it's not a good product.

Surprising, huh? Driver's side done with Zaino and the passenger side done with Malms.

Who woulda thunk it?

From the looks of that road, the LEAST of my worries would be dust.

I also noticed Zaino isn't too dust repellent...but the protection is great and it really lasts.

I wish I could get better repellent of dust. Does anyone else here get dust on their Zaino? Mine follows the streaks of how I apply it (vertical dust streaks on the sides and front to back dust streaks on the horizontal surfaces).

I honestly think that people are splitting hairs about car wax. Use what you like. That's it. I don't care about stuff getting getting on the car as long as it doesn't stick. Zaino does a great job at keeping stuff (even things as acidic as spit and bird droppings) from sticking to the paint/clear coat.
