Yeah its me again with another product test. The weather is getting warmer and summer is fast approaching. It was 80- degrees today and sunny. It was time to change the front door`s upper plastic window (fall/winter) to a mesh screen (spring/summer.) Its one of those steel security doors with two panels, which could be mesh, plastic, or a combination of both.



Ok now to the test, a winter has made the plastic panel all dirty and rough. I cleaned it with Z-6 (Zaino`s QD) which was rather simple. A light squirt, spread with Cannon towel, flip over and buff. the plastic was left roughly clean and clear. There was still some stubborn spots and water marks on certain spots of the plastic panel. So I took out the Z-14 and rubbed it evenly over the pastic panel with medium pressure with Zaino`s #314 applicator pad. Went on very easily. I let it dry to a haze while I surfed around Autopia for a little bit (15 minutes.)



I went to buff off the Z-14 with a Cannon cotton towel and it came off easily a few light/moderate passes and the Z-14 was gone leaving behind a clear, clean, and smoooooooooth surface.

Over all I like these products very much.



The Zaino Z-14 is the only plastic polish I have and it performed very well, just requires some time and strength to rub it in. The smell was a little chemical like though, but I just held my breath after taking a small whif.



The Z-6 cleaned the dirt and dust off the plastic panel with ease, but some of the more stubborn stuff wouldn`t come off. I wasn`t expecting the Z-6 to leave the surface totally clean. The smell was ok, sota fruity or something around there. Just be sure to use a very small amount of this product and you`ll be fine, a little too much requires a little more buffing and may end up with streaks.



I give a thumbs up to Z-6, Z-14, and the terry applicator.

My lunch is usually a 24 oz bottle of water and a clif bar (chocolate chip peanut crunch, soo good), but Brian has to get some pizza, which added some fat to my waist line haha.

HAA!!!

Jason, did the Z14 seem like it has any abrasive qualities? Do you think it would work well on soft/flexible vinyl windows to remove swirling?

Thanks for the review, and dont forget your lunchbag...hehe. <just kiddin ya..>

The abrasive qualities in Zaino Z-14 is VERY low IMHO. It does take some effort to work in the product. A few applications may be necessary to see some affect and results from it.

Yo Jason, my father used to be in the service, isn`t your belt buckle supposed to be lined up with the line of buttons on your shirt?



Just wondering, he was in the service quite a bit ago, maybe that rule doesn`t exsist any longer.

Hey Joe, Current regulations make the belt tip go through the left belt loop first, all the way around. The belt buckle should be lined up with the shirt edge and the line on the pants to form a straight gig line.

Like this



| Shirt edge, after you button it

[] buckle

| edge of pants after buttoning and zipping it.



Hope this makes sense, really hard to describe

Yeap, just line up the edge of the buckle with the zipper and the shirt button seam.



Guess I forgot exactly what my father said, I was around 11-12 at the time.
