Follow the directions and you will be happy with Zaino. Been using it for years. Good stuff.

I have used Zaino for at least 7 or 8 years and it has rewarded my paint many times. I just re-clayed my car about a month ago and applied three layers of Z5 & Z2. It looks absolutely a mile deep. The main thing with any car products is starting from a good base. I would definitely clay the car and remove all the contaminants before trying to perform any real detailing (JMO).

to me, Zano is the best out there

i had my car Zaino today and that shit makes you hungry lol b/c of the smell lol sorry it was my first Zaino

**96silverram** · 10-09-2010, 01:27 PM

I don't know why, but Z5 always smells like a freshly rolled cigar

**GoFast908Z** · 10-14-2010, 12:16 AM

Here's one I did recently. Did some paint correction first, but then topped off with Zaino Z5pro, just 1 coat followed by Z6.

**96silverram** · 10-14-2010, 07:33 AM

That black looks good for one coat of Z5

I claybard', paint cleaned, z2'd, and then did a single coat of Z5 followed by Z6 finish on a Explorer. It looks amazing.

**Blackbird WS6** · 10-14-2010, 07:50 AM

does the Z2 always go first (before) the Z5?? and how many coats should be put on of each?

Its good to use Z2 as the last one. but you can do as many coats as you like. With ZFX you can do up to 3 coats a day.

so lets say 1 coat of Z5 and 2 coats of Z2 is the way to go and finish it off with Z6??

i never used ZFX

Zaino recommends the use of ZFX with Z2 and Z5 if you're doing multiple coats in a short time frame.

But yes that sounds about right.

You should read up on the Zaino site it will explain what I already said in more detail.

yea i just read it...i see what your saying now...what i dont get is how do you built up coats? as in some people say they have 50 coats BUT they site tells you to remove other coats IDK im new to this Zaino stuff, whats the best way to do this now? i dont have the ZFX, i have eveything else

for a everyday car thats always in the sun what does everyone recommend

and for my t/a thats sees the sun maybe 3 times a week for maybe 2hrs?

Ignore the 50 coats... Each successive coat will build on the previous and give more gloss and reflection, however you reach a point of diminishing returns after about 4-5 coats. Its not wax, but think of it like wax.... You put it on, let it dry, then remove it. After its cured (with ZFX about 30 min) you can apply the next coat and just repeat that process.

Also, one coat of Zaino will give the same protection as 20 coats.

But if you follow Z2 or Z5 with a coat of ZFX you can get (conditions permitting) up to 9 months with that combo. I've got a beading picture somewhere of my old daily showing that combo beading after 8 months and it still protected great.

on my DD thats always in the sun will the one coat of Z5 and then Z6 do anything?

i think im going to run Z2 and Z6 on the t/a

and Z5 and Z6 on the DD thats always outside

how does that sound? or am i wasting time and need to get the ZFX?
