With the BMW brand on the bottle, it's obviously going to over priced a little. I doubt it's bad stuff, but there are lots of other options out there for wax - just depends on how much you want to spend.

For AW, I'd try Dodo Juice Diamond White Hard Wax or Dodo Juice Light Fantastic Soft Wax. You could also try Swissvax Glaicer. Both of the Dodo Juice variants are avaiable from DI and the Swissvax is available from DD.

Harder waxes generally offer slightly more protection and are longer-lasting compared to soft waxes. Soft waxes will offer slightly more shine though.

The BMW Nano wax is a relabeled product with the BMW name and logo on it. It's more than likely made by a company like Chemical Guys or similiar company.

Looks very nice! unfortunatly Zaino isnt available for people who live in NJ even though the company is from howell NJ, doesnt make any sense. You have to email the dealer and they give you closest Zaino dealer which is 1hr 30 mins from me. And i dont feel like giving my credit card over the phone. But i will look into dodo juice and swisswax.

THANKS!

What's the problem with ordering online?

Remember credit cards will not cover un-authorized charges and alsoyou can get a "virtual number"

You cant order online, and the place he gave me does orders via phone. My luck i ask for one thing and they will ship something different, you have a confirmation but nothing on paper saying i brought this for my records..........I dont know i prefer something like DI or DD atleast you can see what your ordering.

Then you can just send it back and say you didn't order it. If you don't have evidence of your order then neither do they.

Nano technology doesn't really mean anything for usual car waxes. BMW has in the past rebranded many products from Sonax, P21S, Eizsett, etc.

The reason you can't order zaino online if you live in NJ is because there is a company in howell that sells it, you can go ahead and pick it up locally. With that said, there are plenty of products out there that you can order online.

Detailed image has many differe products you can order that work just as well. I would say you try Jetseal or optiseal to name a couple. Ground shipping from them is only one day to nj, and theres no tax, so I try to order as many of my products from them as I can. Not to mention they have some of the best prices and Customer Service around.

I do like the BMW Shampoo alot- i believe it's rebranded Sonax

and i thought the BMW Nano wax is made by Eagle One or am I confusing it with Audi products?

I use it on my car at times and it works great. That said, it doesn't last as long as Collinite or look as deep/wet/warm as Dodo Wax Purple Haze.
