Zaino questions

[slvr-bullet]

I applied Zaino to my car for the first time last summer and I noticed that as fall/winter came around that the surface of the car started to feel a little bumpy. I did clay the whole car before I started the Zaino process and at that time it was quite smooth.



It`s spring time now and I want to start cleaning my car. Now my question is can I just clay the car again to get rid of the bumps and get back that smooth feeling? If not what do I need to do?



Also I had a sticker on the hood of the car when I applied the Zaino last summer. It is no longer there. Do I start the Zaino process from scratch only in that area?



Thanks

Yes, it`s a good idea to clay the entire car at least once a year or whenever you notice rough/gritty contamination that will not come off with a polish.



So, I`d suggest that you clay the car, tackle any deep swirls, then apply Z1 (or ZFX) + Z2 or Z5. The more coats of Z you add the greater the shine and protection.

Do I need to "dawn" the whole car again or can I just use the Zaino car wash liquid?

[imported_89LXi]

No need to Dawn wash since you already have Zaino applied. Wash with Z7 and clay. If you use a Z7 and water mixture as your lubricant for claying, just rinse and dry after claying then Z6 to get the surface ready for Z5/Z2.

Thanks guys, but what about the hood area that had the sticker on it? What should I do about that? It has never seen any Zaino yet.

[MikeLS]

Just clay that area if needed, then apply Z1 first followed by Z2 or Z5. If you`re not using ZFX, Z1 is needed before you apply the polishes the first time...and it`s a good idea to apply Z1 at least twice a year to the whole car.

Does Zaino have a website. Or is there somewhere I can read about all their products?

I zainoed without claying my new truck last summer and now feel the bumps on the hood. Do I have to remove the Z before claying? Does claying remove the Z? Is it like starting over? :nixweiss



Thanks for helping out a newbie.

Yes, you can just clay again. You will remove some of the Zaino during that process, so its a good idea to wash with Z7 and throw on another coat of Z after claying.
