You did the right thing! You took your time, did everything that is needed prior to Zaino!
Too many people will jump on the Zaino stuff, apply it w/o proper prep work, then blame the Zaino.
It does take time and a lot of patience to do it right.
You also did a step which people forget after polishing, you washed the car down with Dawn to strip oils/silicone off the finish, then Z7 wash to remove any possible films left by Dawn and any leftover oils/silicone. The Z6 prior to and after each Zaino application does make a difference! It really sets up the paint for Zaino, makes it easy to apply and WOW the results!
I'm glad to see someone else follows the advise from Sal and others that use the product and have great results!
Others should follow your prep work. Without prep, Zaino does not produce a great shine, maybe really good, but not what it is capable of.
Now I have to work on the SC430. Too many swirls. Once I get time with my PC and 3M PIII MG,
Menzerna FP, etc etc, then I'm back to using the newer stuff on it. Just got one of the DFTowels to try. Just like Autopia's CBT.
The way I go through Z6, I sould ask Sal to ship a 55 Gal drum to me
Have a nice day!
