I have done my research but I am still confused. I'm not sure what Zaino I need. I keep seeing all these Z2, Z7, Zniner's...help me. I just want to wash and wax my car to make it look pretty.
Thanks,

pretty much the stuff you need is
z1 stuff you put on before z2
z2 the actual polish
z5 if you have swirl marks or scratches
z6 a must makes it very slick and dirt/dust doesnt stick to the car
z7 optional, car wash i use some stuff made here in nc but i didnt notice any difference when i tried z7
z18 claybar kindve optional but you should get it to take out all the contaminants in the paint and make it smoother

i bought z1,z2,z6 and i used my friends claybar

Awsome thanks!

Is the Zaino website the only place to buy it, or are there other, cheaper alternatives?
Thanks,

i heard you can get it through their site but its not available yet, but you can find a local distributor by emailing or calling sal, email and phone number should be on the site

You can call them and find a local distributor in your area, but I doubt it will be any cheaper. By the way, I don't use Z2, I use Z1, Z5, and Z6. To me, I don't see any difference between Z2 and Z5.

I'm still a bit confused on the Zaino application process, even after reading the instructions over several times. Here is my current understanding of the process.

First Step - Clay Bar
2nd Step - Wash with Dawn
3rd Step - Apply Z1
4th Step - Apply Z5
5th step - let dry
6th step - remove haze with 100% cotton bath towel
7th step - Apply Z1
8th step - Apply Z2
9th step - let dry
10th step - remove haze with 100% cotton bath towel
11th step - Apply and immediately remove Z6 (using 100% cotton towel)
Repeat steps 7-11 several times

Do I always apply Z1 before Z2 or Z5? If so, I missed that step on the first application of Z2. I applied the Z2 immediately after removing the Z5. Have I messed up the process? I have since applied two coats Z1 followed by Z2, followed by Z6.

This was so much work getting the initial work done, I am looking forward to being able to just do it monthly.

thanks for your help.

step 1 wash with dawn
step 2 claybar
step 3 wash with dawn
step 4 dry
step 5 z-1
step 6 z2/5 use either
step 7 let dry
step 8 remove haze
step 9 goto step 10 if not using ZFX, step 11 if you are
step 10 z6 then wait at least 24 hours for next coat of z2/5 onto step 12
step 11 z-6 then apply another coat of z2/5 until satisfied using z-6 inbetween coats
step 12 your done until you want to put another coat on

z1 once every 5 coats

Just curious, how long does a typical Zaino shipment take?
Heck, it's snowing so I can't wash anyway....just getting the itch to get the Zaino on the car.

depends on where you ordered from, mine took 4 days to get to north carolina and i ordered from tennesee
