My latest Zainos, With pics!

I just used it on my 7 day old Audi.. It is truly amazing, a bit strange to apply but wow, the depth and clarity is amazing.

I applied 1 coat Z-AIO, 1 coat Z-5 (insurance), 1 coat Z-2, final coat Z-CS... I used the Z-AIO in lieu of the Dawn wash as I hate doing it, and Sal told me this would replace the dawn wash but not the clay bar. It didn't need clay as there was no sediment on the paint. All this in under 3 hours application/removal time! The AIO is a real time saver, great product for those short on time and still want to try Zaino.

I got an email from Sal Zaino as I wanted to try something new on the rubber seals on the Audi (it has tons).. I emailed the main customer service address and within hours Sal personally returned my message (on a Sunday). Great customer support! Anyway he said to apply the clear seal all over the entire vehicle, glass and especially all rubber/plastic trim on the exterior.. I did it yesterday and it made them perfectly matte black.. I will keep you posted on the durability of the trim.. As for the durability of Zaino as a whole, it way outlasts any organically based product I have ever tried to date.. Especially in this Texas heat..

I did our e92 about a month ago, still looks amazing.. I can't wait to give him a coat of CS. The formula on him is... Dawn wash, 1 coat ZFX enabled Z-5, 2 coats ZFX enabled Z-2. One coat of Z-6 in between each step. Finished with Z-8. I apply products with the terry applicators but I am not a fan of terry towells for removal, I prefer to use MF towells.. I understand this is not recommended by Zaino but it has worked for me for 3 full application thus far.. As well as countless applications of Z-6 and Z-8. I am thinking about giving them a try again, I'm tired of buying new MF towells. I recommend doing the Dawn wash in your garage or in total shade.. Water spots creap up on you fast!

Cheers!
