How much of the product is needed to detail an s2000? (or rather how long will their standard size bottles last?)

As you all know from my own experience, I really liked the Zaino results except for the tedious steps and curing times involved. I had said at that time that I would use up my remaining supply and not buy any more. This changes everything. The tediousness and curing times are now gone so I look forward to being a true Zaino convert. I've just done my wife's brand new PT Cruiser with Zaino and believe me, Red is really red and we both love it. I was just not looking forward to taking the car away from her for a day just to do one coat.

you should be abke to put on at least 8 coats - and likely more once you get good at it.
each bottle is 8 ounces - and it is used incredibly sparingly - to the point you have to question whether you are actually putting some on!

see the car in my sig - i get 8 coats on that!

I use more Z1 than Z2 since Z1 is the cleaner. Every road trip and especially every track event result in plenty of tar and rubber on the finish. Z1 is the way I get them off.

In fact I seldom use Z2 just to get more shine.. normally I use it after Z1 cleaning up after one of 6-8 trips I make a year. ZFX might be handy for me occasionally but I usually apply Z2 in the evening and buff it off the next morning.
whoa....that's not what Z1 is for at all. Z1 is just a foundation for Z2/5. It's not meant to be used as a cleaner like that. Z1 is a "once or twice a year or every 10 coats of 2/5" thing.

I forgot to ask if you had tried WD-40 yet? It really works and doesn't harm the finish.

No need to call Sal, this has worked just fine for years.
