Does anyone know a Detailer that uses Zaino?

 

probably not going to find one, from what the pro's have said on here, Zaino is not a product that is condusive to the detail business, takes too much cure time that they could be using more productively. But if you are looking for a good detailer in LA, from the advice that I have seen on here, probably one of the best is Exceldetail and he is in Thousand Oaks if I am not mistaken. His website is www.exceldetail.com (retail site but it has his address and phone)

Does he use Zaino? I didn't think that he did...

 

If the money's right, he'll use his children's perspiration if that's what you want.

 

I know that exceldetail does not use Zaino, but he does use a high grade polymer sealants, which is what Zaino is. I may be wrong about finding a detailer that uses Zaino, and if you do you're probably going to be paying VERY High price to get it done. From what I understand it is a great product, but it is very time intensive to work with. You might be better off trying to find someone on here that is willing to work with you or do it for you. There are a lot of ppl in So. Cal that use it that are on Acurazine. Good Luck!

 

Zaino is the easiest sealant I have ever used. You need to mix it with a few drops of accelerator to get it to cure quicker. It goes on effortlessly with a straight wiping motion and is not rubbed in.

Time is only a factor in letting it cure between coats. Even with accelerator, an hour is recommended. Then, the slight haze just buffs off easily. It can be followed with a Z6 spray gloss-enhancer afterwards for an even better shine.

I find that it will last for six months but I am in Florida and my car is garaged. I seldom drive it- especially in the rain.

A caution: My car is black and Zaino leaves it looking kind of "silvery". If you prefer a deep, onyx-like black, like polished stone, other waxes or sealants may appeal to you better. I am told by Exceldetail that Blackfire gives remarkable depth and shine on black. I haven't tried it yet.

Zaino is tops for protection and ease of application. Plus, Sal Zaino is online to answer your questions. He usually responds to an email within the hour.

 

My comments were not meant to slam Zaino, I have never worked with it but I was just stating what some of the professional details have said concerning the cure times and that it is not business smart to use a product that has such a long cure time. I personally was going to go with Zaino for my Satin Silver, but in talking to Excel, he let me know that blackfire and 4 Star are equally good products without the extended cure times. I just ordered some 4 star yesterday and I am anxious to try it out.

 

Thanks for everyones reply and input. I will be call sal to see if I can get a lesson.

Thanks.

 

If you want, i'm willing to come out and do it and use whatever product you want.
