Default It's Zaino time!

Well after trying almost every product on the market I have finally able to try zaino.

It is raining outside right now but I want to use the stuff so badly that I will wash the car in the rain, pull into the garage to dry then claybar then ZAINO.

I will posts results sometime today

You should have no problem, it is a nice sunny, warm day here in Tennessee.

Go for it! Waxing in the garage is a good idea anyway. The cool temp makes for better results. Also, how great does it feel when you pull it back out into the after-rain sun and take a look at what happened under the shade of your garage.. oooo

I've used it on my car a few times, and love the results. I know you will too.

When done, you will agree that it was worth the effort! Just did mine Sunday/Monday. The whole nine yards. Couldn't believe what a difference it made on my Sebring that is relatively new.

I had been "kissed" on the return from Fall Colors and just got the car in to have the rear bumper painted. The guy that actually shot the bumper wanted to know more about the product(s) I used because it was the smoothest finish he'd ever felt!

Don't skip steps! Don't drop the claybar! When you DO, stretch and re-fold for clean surface. Each additional coat of Z-2 goes on easier than the last. Good luck.

It's about time Sumir! Damn, that poor Red on your S was screaming for relief. Zaino will add about 11 horses as the air simply glides off the paint.

i suggest cutting the bar in half (use half and the other in case you drop one)... because i dont think its worth folding if you drop it.

This is what I recommend for my customers, since the Zaino Z-18 comes in two bars to start with, take one of the bars and tear it in half, basically only using 1/4 of the entire container at any give time.

Always lay a towel on the ground or floor directly over the area you are claying, if you do drop the bar the towel will catch it and you can just keep using it, never have to throw away a good clay bar that way.

When that one piece of the bar you broke off becomes soiled and you do not feel comfortable using it on the top surfaces of the paint, instead of throwing it away right then, keep it for claying the lower rocker panels (which would gunk up a new clay bar right off the bat)

I keep fresh, brand new clay at all times, and then some I have used before for the lower parts of the car you can hardly see.
