Thumbs up Zaino

I've read some good stuff about the product but its soo damn expensive to ship to Australia. Anyone in Australia used these products? if so where did u get them from specifically?

I personally havent used Zaino but there is one owner of a black S that used it and my opinion of it....Absolutely amazing... it looked like a perfect mirror image...
There is alot of prep work but if you are willing to prep the car then you'll be more than happy
There is a guy called Greg from eclipse detailing who sells these products.

I think I may have been put onto Zaino by the same 'owner of a black S'

I'm a HUGE fan...what an great product. I've used it on 2 cars, and just put it on my new car.

It's true that it's alot of work. The first car I did took 2 people 16 hours, over the course of weekend.

Once the prep work is done, it's fairly easy to maintain. Probably no more work than ordinary using wax. Don't get me wrong, it's not difficult to apply by any means, it's just a time consumming, multi-step process.

The results were well worth it.

I'd love to find an Australian distributor. It would make feeding my addiction to the stuff much easier.

I have been using Zaino for over 2 years now and I can tell you it is the best polish I have ever used. Preparation is not that hard and you can apply as many coats as you like. Unlike wax, each coat you apply it melts the coat below it and so you always end up with only one coat. Zaino last much longer. Apart from initial application, it only takes me 10 minutes to apply and at most 15 minutes to wipe of and I mean wipe off. Unlike wax you don't have to polish real hard and you dont get white streaks in areas that you have missed.

You can get zaino from a guy that imports the stuff himself. here is his web page

www.aurora-one.com.au

His name is Keng and phone number is 0417363908

here are some of the pics fromusing Zaino

Good luck

Perry

Can't help with distributors but i've heard that polymer waxes/sealants like Zaino are best used one a car is new as they tend to highlight nicks and scratches whereas carnuba and other natural waxes hide little flaws.

Perry: car looks schmick! Great work.

Thanks #69, but Zaino comes with 2 tpyes of polish. No 2 for super shine and No 5 for covering of swirl marks and I rotate the using them and works geat for me.
