I'm not sure about Zaino CS

I tried CS a couple of days ago and i'm not sure about the results. I followed the directions and misted the applicator that came with the CS. First of all, it's hard to know if you are putting any on the car or not. Are you supposed to see it when you put it on? I let it sit on the car for about 24 hours. When I returned I could still see it on most of the car. Maybe I applied too much but how are you supposed to know if you're applying it if you can't see it? I used Z6 and buffed off the CS. After I was done buffing the car looked great but i'm not sure there is much difference than just using Z5 or Z2.
 
You say "When I returned I could still see it on most of the car" but you also say you couldn't see it when you were putting it on. Are you saying that you could see it more after it dried than before? Because it's supposed to be the opposite. Perhaps you had some surface contamination which caused it to streak as it dried.
 
I did notice this on one car that I did as well. I always mist the applicator to start and do just one spray per panel. The whole car turned out fine, but the hood had some coloration streaks. It was a metallic blue Scion TC.
 
My first 2 times using were like that. What I learned is to use very little and have a perfectly primed pad and rub into the surface moderately and working it into the paint. After a couple of cars it will get easier and is a piece of cake to do.



#1 Rule

Must be thin light coat and worked into the surface. This will ensure any moisture in the air will not affect it as much. It is a very easy learning curve, but we are not use to it cause this is the only product of its kind.
 
I dont think that is the problem I encountered. Like I said, I have done a total of 16 cars with CS. Only had one problem.

I usually work it fwd/aft on the horz panels and up/down on the vert panels 3-4 times. Applied CS to a light tan tahoe and a dark met. green F-150 today. No problems at all.
