Anyways, I always use Mr. Clean car wash to wash my car. I have used Gold's wax before with no problems. Last weekend I used the whole Zaino wax treatment, followed instructions, it worked great. Then today I washed my car and there is this residue ALL over my car. It's like streaks of something. You could easily see it on my windows, especially the tinted windows. But my whole car is just covered in this residue. Looks like wax spread all over my car or something from washing it. I had to use degreaser windex and paper towels to get it off all my windows. It took actual scrubbing to come off. But now the rest is still all over my car. Could this be from the Zaino wax? What else could it be? How to get it off? Thanks!

what did you do before you applied the zaino? (what process did you use?)
has the car been parked indoors, or could it be something in the air (pollen?)


can you get pics?

Car was always inside. I washed my car with dish soap, then applied the products like stated. I think it was either Z2 or Z5, forget. Then apply the Z6. Then apply the other Z2, or Z5, forget. Then Z6 spray again. Did it, it was fine. Week later(today), I washed my car with Mr. Clean and now my car is covered. I would take pictures but I doubt you will be able to see it in a picture. I already got it all off the windows where it was most obvious. My car is silverstone so stuff is hard to see on the paint.

Maybe you didn't buff all of it out?

with zaino, that is possible- or maybe it was not applied evenly (and really thin)...

the way to check that would be to wash the car, dry it and then buff it (i would use a microfiber bonnet over a lambswool pad.)- or maybe use a quick detailer as the final step.

Maybe the solution in the mr clean system didn't react well with the zaino etc... (dont see why it would, but maybe)

Maybe there is some kind of wax in the Mr. Clean soap that isn't reacting well with the Zaino.

Anyone else use both Zaino and Mr. Clean and can chime in?

Yea, the streaks are really hard to get off. I have to actually scrub at it with a wet papertowel. I really hope I dont have to do it that way over my whole car! What removes wax? Dawn dish soap didn't work....

paper towel = scratches in paint. STOP.

Use a buffer and paint cleanser and start over. It sounds like you put the zaino on WAY too thick. So thin you don't think it's going on is the right way.
