I am getting ready to wash my car for the first time since it started snowing up here, i am interested in using zaino products because the finish i see on cars looks awesome. What Zaino products should i buy and use, and in what order should i use them, i need a quick walk through of how to use the products, oh and one other thing, where can i get zaino products? Ill post before and after pics. Thanks!

Zanio is a synthetic polymer wax, a compromise between a polymer sealant and a natural wax. The polymers do not require a lengthy cross-link (cure) time as ZFX™ is formulated to accelerate the time requirements. Z-2™ produces the most gloss of the two synthetic waxes (although they’re labelled as polishes) it is more optically clear then Z-5™ and will highlight any surface imperfections, whereas Z-5 will ‘hide’ very minor surface imperfections with fillers. Z-3™ is a ‘polish’ for single stage (non-clear coated) paint.

But it really does all come down to; 85% preparation, 5% product, 7% application method and the balance is in the ‘guy’ of the beholder.

Zanio sells various ‘kits’ that package required products together

you can buy everything you need from their online store Zainostore.com

if you dont really require much prep work then you'll just need Z2-pro, ZFX, Z-6 detail spray and some Z-7 wash. i'm not a big fan of their Z-5 as it never seems to do much in the way of prep work. i would much rather recommend a quality polish such as Einszettes MP(metallic polish in the red can) or PP (paint polish in the green can) to do the prep work. but remember Zaino needs a perfectly clean surface for proper bonding to take place so be sure to clean the surface after you've polished to remove any oils left behind. you can do this by mixing alcohol with water at a 50/50 mix ratio. spray on a panel and wipe off. maybe two passes around the car like that then do a Z-7 wash and then appy your Z2-pro.

so your process would be:

wash
clay (as you wash)
polish (your favorite one will do)
50/50 alcohol/water mix ( to remove oils left from the polishes)
Z-7 wash
Z2-pro with ZFX accelerator

then continue layering the Z2-pro to get the finish deeper and wetter looking. i usually do two coats the first day then another two after the next wash.

when you go to the website they will have all the instructions and tips you'll need to get you started. good luck and dont forget to post those pics.!
