Just to chime in where others have, I also use the cotton pad, and the NEW part is a must or a slight haze appears. I have also tried foam and had success. I store the applicator, after use, in a plastic bag.

Exactly.....that and some more of your very informative comments....Originally Posted by mgm121499
I can`t feel it but, you could tell us how the surfaces may vary when wet or dry. Since you`ve done several black cars I`d be curious to find out what your personal preference in steps and products are that gave you the most desirable look in your eyes......
I`d like to see how well it looks. Will it be as close to a deeper wetter look?
Beading doesn`t really interest me, but the full look is what I`m trying to obtain.
Z5-Pro/Z2-Pro with Z8 is getting closer to deeper wetter look, very very close. Not quite a full carnuba look to it. It does have that nice reflective look without looking like the much older Zaino or Rejex which have the plastic wrap look. Thank God that`s gone!
The best test will be on a black finish.

Maybe this is why I get soo many coats/oz?:heelclick

I am sure along the way we will discover a way to cleanse these pads to a point where performance will not require such analness or requirement of a new pad.
Remember this is a very durable LSP sealant and frequent application is not required and a Z8 session will bring back all the desired bling with each wash. 2-3 pads a year is not very much to request for maximal performance.:sadwavey:

Deano -Here are the pics that I posted up on another board:
The silver Dodge is wearing Z2Pro & CS
My wife`s black Tahoe is dressed in Z5Pro & CS
My 70 year old Mother-In-Laws Vette (LOL) has CS directly over ZPC Fusion Polish.

2003 Z71 Tahoe:

TigerMike -Have a look on the other DC board if you want to see a few beading shots. There is a BMW posted up. I washed the Tahoe this evening before this weekends rain, so I`m not pulling out that mammoth beast for a few shots, just to wash it again. Hope you understand

I just wanted to chime in my experience for the day. It was 32 in my garage, and despite my z6 partially freezing when it hit the panel, CS dried in 30 minutes. It does take a bit longer in cold temps, but it does still work.

Wow!!!!! Those pics are insane! I can`t wait to get the cs. I am a menzerna 106ff guy, but I have been using the zpc lately and I love it more than 106ff. It gives such an amazing glow. I can imagine with just putting cs over that and then walking away. Detailing my used cars will be so fast end easy! My car lot is glowing so far. I am having a problem washing them though. Too cold out
Zaino has changed my life. It made it much easier with outstanding results and now it looks it`s going to get much easier. Can`t wait for the cs to be sold.
back in 1999 Zaino changed my life and the life as well. thats when I first tried it. got tired of ordering it and changed to Duragloss 111 at that point. then I found this place and am getting back into trying different things. I think the ZPC, ZAIO, CS, and pros are on my list for spring or summer whenever AIO comes out
