Zaino Vs. Meguires Gold Class

Hey guys anyone think that Zaino is that much better than meguires gold class wax. The gold class is not a carnuba based wax so you don't have the yellow residue, not to mention that it is a quarter of the price I guess the only way for me to know is to try both, but I really don't want to pay the high price for zaino. From the pics I have seen I really don't see a diffrence between the two.

even if u can get a decent shine from meguires it WILL NOT oulast zaino's protection, one coat of zaino can get you through a 5 month pennsylania winter w/ all that salt n shit

yes, lots of folks do - and for different reasons, it is important to determine the features of a product, or product line and see if it is what you want for your car.

I guess the only way for me to know is to try both, but I really don't want to pay the high price for zaino.
how much do you think zaino costs ?

how much does a package of gold class cost?

to be fair - z1 and z2 together, nothing else - would be the comparison price wise for a gold class package -
how much more is that where you live - around these parts its $10

the rest of the items cant be included in the expenze of zaino, unless you start adding in more meguiars products . . .

From the pics I have seen I really don't see a diffrence between the two.

pictures are not an accurate way to judge wax - there are way oo many variables, plus indiidual user methods and paint conditions etc . . .

you need an independant testing facility - oh, lets say like the gurureports folks . ..

Thanks for everyone's replies, I guess I will go with the Zaino I just don't like the fact that I have to order it instead of just visiting the local auto store.

I'm sure there is a local distributor or seller in your area...just ask around in this forum.

Also, Zaino will last a while because you use so little of it. When I used Meguiar's before on my old car, I used more of it compared to the amount of Zaino I use now on my new car, which is a bigger car.

I feel the same way! That's the only reason I don't have any Z now.
