I haven't used any of those products. I've only used zaino on my silverstone. Results are freaking incredible.

I've found it very easy to use. Goes on easy. Comes off easy. Only hiccup is having to mix in a couple drops of their Zfx every time to help with the polish drying and adhesion. I also don't use any fancy applicators, buffers, or anything. Just a bunch of thick white cotton towels.

Protection's been great over the past three months.

Never heard of Detailing Dymanics before. Sonus makes good products, but there are a lot of people that swear by Four Star particularly for their silver cars.

Personally, I've never been impressed by Zaino. However, every body has their own opinion.

I can almost guarantee the Detailing Dynamics line is just a private label of products by a company like Chemical Guys. Not bad, not great.

Although I haven't tried it yet, I have heard great things about the 4*/Ultimate line on silver. I should be trying that soon, though thanks to work

I've been pretty impressed with Zaino on my silverstone and I think I may go back to it this year unless 4* wows me. I stripped everything off (xylene-based solvent, some heavy gloves and a respirator!) and tried different combos last year, but Zaino was really the best looking of what I've tried so far.

Actually, I've been considering a full wetsand for perfectly smooth paint. I think every panel has at least been blended into with a repaint, so I'm not TOO worried about it
