Whats your favorite product before zaino?

just curious... we all know that the most important part of zaino is the prep work.. so what's the last product you use before appling the zaino? so far i've been using the ppcl... though haven't tried much else.

The prep for the BMW and Audi was done with Finesse It!

Will Zaino bond correctly to AIO? I have been concerned when applying Zaino after prep that i haven't stripped all of the oils from the paint, will the silicone content in AIO prevent bonding?

I kind of doubt it, because ZFX Z5 bonded to 2 week old Blitz with nothing more than a Z7 wash, but I'm quite a newbie with Zaino.

Puterbum,

ZFX?? What are you, the prodigal son?? Back to Zaino now?

I've tried Zaino over AIO with no (apparent) problems. But I can't be certain as it was only on there for a couple months.

BradB. I am simply amazed that you are able to use Finesse It (by hand I presume?) on a red car and get a marr-free, glossy surface. I've tried FI-2 and made a complete mess on my black bimmer. Just goes to show how important technique is.

Just dawn & clay. Surface was preb b4 using M80. Just needed to strip my old wax. Which was Swissol Onyx. Since Zaino can't bond with this high oil carnauba wax.
