Ok, got all day tomorrow. It's time for a redo of my finish. Why should I go with Z-5 over my favorite PS. I'll use Men. PO85RD for cleaning then ???? Z-2 just dosen't do my RED car justice.

**It will be far more durable.
**You can use Z-8 to bring back the shine.
**Done right, it is almost as wet, Z-5Pro that is.

Since you're prepping with PO85RD you may want to lay the Z5 first, and then top it with PS. I hope I understood the question, or are you just asking which one to use only? 
I would go PS alone. PS produces fantastic results. Car show type results! | |

P.S. I see Zaino as an either or deal. Use Zaino only or a carnauba plus AIO, etc. only.
Zaino plus a carnauba only takes away from the Zaino clarity and look imho.

| The sun on the front fender looks a bit hazy to m, but Souveran does looks great with reds and other dark colors. Looks very good with silver as well. The problem is durability.
