hmm let us know what you think about zaino. i've started it using it, but i don't have a frame of reference (new car). i'd like to hear opinions compared to other brands, especially concerning durability and how well it last. but to be honest, i've never thought highly of meguiars...

i'm using it now, and i'm mostly happy, but i just started using it so i have to wait and see. a quick warning putting it on is kinda tricky. people say you can't put it on too thin, but i think because you're supposed to apply multiple coats you're making up for super thin coats.

my car does feel super slick to the touch and smooth. it looks great but like any wax/polish it'll take time to see if it's right for me.

off topic, i think the stuff is good, but the degree of fanaticism around the stuff is kind of scary.

Yes, you can get noise out of good tires on the S. I've done it a number of times without trying. It depends on conditions. With the SC I have scared myself a couple of times. Once I left my home and was getting onto the 4 lane that passes near by. I was a little pushed by cars coming from a light so I got on it. I was not turning, but was not yet going absolutely straight. Well, I got quarter side ways real quick. No problem, I just felt like a fool. Another time I left my work and almost did the same thing.

Years ago I had a Corvette. It looked stock but had some work. Ran well. I was leaving a friends house, had to back out and take off. Traffic was coming so I touched the throttle a bit to get out of the way. I smoked the tires. I know my friend thought I was showing off. Again, I felt like a fool.

It's more fun when you mean to do it

PS - Ziano is the stuff. It looks good and outlasts anything I've ever used.
