Default s2000 zaino polished s2k

For those of you who use Zaino to detail your S2K, please post pics and note what Zaino product was used. Thanks

A lot of people still use Zaino (as well as countless other products out there) and the year is irrelevant.

I know there are people still out there that use and the reason behind it was it was pretty good stuff 10 years ago but technology changes and for the most part Zaino's line has fallen behind.

If you use it great but I see no point in playing amateur chemist when you don't have to and get better results with other products.

I think combination of the after results and price makes it a good combination, regardless if it is 10 years old. But since your making the comment, what would you recommend as a Zaino replacement that fits it price range?

lol!! Says the guy who's driving a car based on 10+ year old technology.

More on topic though, Zaino's durability is supposedly top notch, even today. If you know of something that looks as good as lasts longer, by all means let me know.

Price? A Zaino kit with all the stuff needed is much more than a bottle of Menz PL, BFWD or OS and you save hours with the application and removal. The durability is very comparable too. As for the "after results" its really all in the prep work the LSP dose very little in comparison with compounding, polishing and jeweling. In that department Menzernas line and M105/M205 are the clear winners.

When you say supposedly that makes me think you have never used Zaino only had "word of mouth" experiences is that true? Read the above post for better products.
No, I don't buy polishes to test them, so I can't give a firsthand account. That said, people who know a lot more about this than I do seem to really like the stuff.

And the above post lists Zaino as one of his favorite sealants, so I'm not sure of your point there.

Regardless, to assume something is junk just because it uses 10 year old technology is pretty ridiculous.
