AIO under Zaino

[rmerikle]

I will be detailing with Zaino this weekend. I have read mixed reviews about using AIO before the final Zaino coats. I have only used Zaino once and it did not seem to be as durable as SG. I have read that it may because I used AIO under the Zaino. What do you guys/gals think?

I have used Zaino under AIO many many times and it turns out fine. I cannot speak to longevity because I cannot keep anything on my car longer than 2 months. I always have to try something new.

AIO is a paint cleaner and Zaino is a sealant, just like SG. You *shouldn`t* have any problems prepping with AIO before either of the two products.



I absolutely love AIO and use it before all my sealants. :xyxthumbs

I used AIO under Z2 Pro x 3 on my brother`s Odyssey in early December and it still looks really good and beads well. Slickness has dropped off but the paint is still smooth. Not bad at all for 7 months out!

7 months, and the slickness has dropped :woot2:



What a shame hahaha.

I never knew you tried Z, Scott!



I was wondering when you would get around to trying it! The durability might kill your repeat detailings, though, so I understand. :woot2:

Doubt it. I have the kind of customers who want their cars waxed regularly even though they are beading nicely still. Basically, my regulars want their cars taken care of Autopia style. ;)
