Haven't seen or heard anything about this product. I'm curious myself.

I like Zaino. It works well for many.
But I like several other products much better. Prima is my choice. Topped with RejeX on the daily drivers and Victoria's Red on the T/A.

Zaino has a new product called Z-CS. It is a one step wipe on walk away that can be used in conjunction with their other products (or any other manufactures), or it can be used all by itself. It's only $30

Plus Zaino has a great track record, where not many have heard of Ultima Polish yet.

I have the new Zaino Clear Seal (CS). At the F Body Gathering in Atlanta, I talked to some folks that had used it and all said they didn't have much luck with it. I think I will try it on my Avalanche cladding. It can't look any worse than it does now.
See ya,

I think I am going to give ultima a chance. This new nano technology is amazing. The sealant partials they claim are 10x smaller then any other products. To me that means denser sealant and tighter bonds and it will fill in the slightest imperfections. Ill post pictures up when i do it and let you guys know.

I have Zaino clear seal and have had absolutely no luck with it. No matter what technique i use to apply it, it will not fully dry up and has to be buffed away. I spread it as thin as i can but still no luck.

I want to try the Ultima Paint Protection Sealant
I have seen reviews from detailers I respect and trust, and I think is a great product that has been improved from its original introduction
David B. from autopia is not a person I'm too fond of, or even buy his products because he says "is better than Zaino"
I understand he's trying to hype his products, and what better way to do it against the most popular product and one of the best out there
I also don't agree with this statement on the UPGP description: "Ordinary waxes and paint sealants easily wash off in a matter of weeks, but Ultima Paint Guard Plus continues protecting, beading water and shining for months"
Though he's correct to some degree, I've used some sealants that hold up against the best sealants in the market today in terms of durability, shine, and protection without the need for any kind of booster. I'm yet to use a sealant that will wash off in weeks
I'd say UPGP is a good sealant, and I would try it on the merits of the reviews I've seen, more than what I've initially read. The UPGP has an ingredient added to its formula called Polycharger Wax Booster which is an additive that aids in durability and curing time in the same way ZFX does for Zaino. I believe the original formula didn't have the Polycharger when it first came out

Talk is cheap!
I want some pics!
Anyway, did you try all of that stuff; Prima, 3M, and the DG-101?
I know that trying to remove defects by hand is a handful (no pun intended ) but the 3M 39009 is probably as effective as anything you can try by hand. Just need some patience

blacker than wesleysnipes- 98' trans am
i am working on it..i will load them up after work...i used everything...i am pretty happy with the results...with it being by hand that is...i still have very fine swirl marks that can be seen in certian angles..but the big ones and very noticeable ones are gone...i dont get the annoying glare/shine from the swirls on my rear quarter panels anymore the color has a more uniform depth now and looks deeper then before..but i think it might be time to invest in a random orbital buffer in the very near future..since there are still swirls and my front bumper has alot of over-spray from when it got repainted...but yea long story short..for a hand application i am very pleased with it.

I used a clay bar yesterday to take some overspray off of my paint actually. No fun at all, claybars do work great though.
