Zaino Z2/Z6 Removal

E90Brian · 12-08-2008, 10:49 AM

I am switching from Klasse to Zaino and would like to know what Zaino users use to remove Z2 (or Z5) and Z6. Zaino's website recommends 100 percent cotton bath towels, but I'd prefer to use microfiber.

So what are you using? If MF, I wold appreciate specifics (brand, type).

Thanks!

Detailers domain makes a lot of microfiber you can check out. Detailed image also has a lot of quality microfiber. You can't go wrong with either one.

I think the owner of Zaino recently changed his mind about the towels and now recommends MF. You should contact him directly and ask. He's been very responsive and helpful in my experience - top-notch guy...

Thanks for the replies. I think I will contact the company directly and ask!

I only use MF towels. No problems with zaino and MF

I've followed Sal's advice for 9 months and used high quality cotton towels and removed the edges. The results have been no swirl marks on my black sapphire paint. It works!

I've also used a large wash bucket with a screen on the bottom, a large sheepskin wash mitt and lots of care.

I just use cheap MF from Target. They sell a big bundle of about eight of them for I think around ten bucks. They work great for wax removal.

Mega-pack from Costco, about 20 bucks for 20 or more. I pull the little tag off before use.

I've been using MF towels for a long time removing Zaino and they are perfect. Sal has accepted the fact they are OK for use with his products. When I first started using Zaino some years ago I went to a fabric store and bought about 3 yards of pure cotton flannel material, brought it home and cut it up into nice smaller towel sizes. Worked perfect and was cheap (if you don't mind being seen in a fabric store!).
