New to Zaino

[MattP]

Just purchased my first Zaino products & looking for advice on using them,



I`m planning on using JW Prime AIO first , then a wipe down with Z8, then follow with Z-CS.



Weekly top ups with the Z8.



Can diluting Z8 1:2 distilled water make it easier to use in the sun, i read that it doesnt like being used in the sun.



Must you really use a brand new pad for applying the Z-CS.



Thanks MattP

I would buy the z-aio



Dont dilute z8, its so incredible as it is, wait for the sun to go down if you have to.



Seriously, its the best product i have ever tried.

Trying to keep costs down & use what i have, nearly full bottle of Prime.

I think I would put something under the ZCS, like Z2PRO.

Prime AIO topped with CS will be quite durable. I`d use the Z8 over top the CS. Then you can alternate Z8 and CS applications as you wish.

Just a quick note; don`t use Z8 prior to CS. It may cause some streaking. Using it after, is stunning.

Thanks folks



I will keep Z8 for use after the Z-CS, should i use a QD to make sure all of the Prime is removed, before Z-CS.

If he is using JW Prime, he does not need to buy the ZAIO.

Can someone clarify for me the difference between Z2-Pro and Z5-Pro? Is it just that Z5 has fillers? How about difference in appearance or durability?

[MattP]

From what i`ve read Z2 more gloss & Z5 more depth, some say z2 for light colors z5 for dark, & some say use both using z2 last & get best of both worlds.

z8 weekly is going to be a waste. With CS, you just need a QD or wash to bring back the same look you had on day 1 for quite a while.

[tod071]

I agree, for weekly wipedowns, use Z6.



Also, dilution of Z8 is not necessary. Zaino products are meant to be applied in the sun.

Z2 is recommended for Clear Coated cars, Z5 is for non-clear coat. Z5 is also a swirl remover, so yes, it has fillers.



I`ve found that Z5Pro is a little darker and glossier than Z2. I personally, just use Z5Pro on all cars, cc or not, light or dark. Less to think and worry about. :p

I thought it was Z3 that was made for single stage paint and Z2 or Z5 can be used on clear coated paint. Also Z5`s filling capability is so minimal that I wouldn`t put it on any paint that still has swirls or marring.

You`re right. Z3 is made for ss paint, but I use Z5pro on it anyway. Thanks for catching that.
