Question Autoglym against Zaino

Does anyone have any views on how good / different the finish is between these products. I use Autoglym now, and wondered if Zaino is realy a major improvement / stepup from Autoglym, or if they are realy around the same level (eg is Autoglym a mainstream average product and Zaino some sort of high end mega product). - regards

My understanding is that Autoglym is similar to Klasse (http://autopia-carport.com/forum/sho...utoglym+klasse). Klasse is comparable to Zaino. I have used Autoglym but not Zaino (yet). The advantage is Zaino would seem to be it lasts longer and you can get a lot of help and support from people on Zaino/Klasse on this forum. BTW Zaino can be bought in Germany http://www.viper-lifestyle.de/zainoengl.htm.

I like the Autoglym Super Resin Polish and Glass Cleaner. I am not keen on the shampoo, I prefer P21S (http://www.iauto.co.uk/Page/Contents.html) shampoo. I have also had great success using Blitz wax (http://www.frost.co.uk) instead of the Autoglym Gloss. Blitz seems to give a deeper richer shine and appears to last longer.

Thanks

Thanks for that. I have some Autoglym, so I will give my car a good shine this weekend (after getting it back from the dealer). Will post a pic and see if it compairs to what other peole on the site have managed to get with other produts.

It's very difficult to compare the the real image of how a car looks with photos. If you're very happy with the Autoglym, then that's great. There may not be any need to try Klasse, Blackfire or Zaino. However, if you just like to experiment, then by all means give one or all of them a try. Laters
