I did a search and havent found a direct comparision of the two. Only old to new. After seeing the results achieved by ZaneO and G35stilez I have decided that I might to try out the famed Zaino paint system on my black paint. I already love their Z10 and Z16. What are the differences in similiarities between the two? Whats better for darks, lights, and metalic paints? Shine, durabilty, cleaning ability etc... I was planning on getting ZFX, Z6 and Z8 to try out along with it. If I use polish such as a SSR would an IPA wipe down be enough to clean the paint or would I need to go with AIO?

Z2pro is more reflective and hi gloss/ Z5pro has more of a carnaubaish look. On a dark mettallic I think Z5pro looks better but others prefer Z2pro.

Z2 Pro has a slightly brighter/glossier appearance while Z5 Pro is a touch deeper/wetter. The differences aren`t huge, but they`re present.



*I* prefer Z5 Pro on all darker colors and Z2 Pro on lighter colors and metallics.



Durability is very similar, and an IPA wipedown will be fine after polishing.

Z5 has filling properties while Z2 doesnt, correct?

I have always been a Z5 fan. For some reason IMO Z5 goes on and removes a touch easier.

I love Z5 on silver. All other colors I always finish up with Z2.
