IMHO, since you have both, you really can't go wrong with either one. Just make sure that whichever one you decide to try out first (klasse or the zaino), please eventually try out the other one and compare, then tell us what you think![]()

Now, if I were you, I'd get rid of the swirls via some Meguiars #9 (or DACP if it were needed). Go an application of AIO. Then start off with the Zaino. Top with PS. You could of course just sub the Zaino with SG, but I personally like Zaino, so yea...
Hope whatever you try works out!

Magellan498 said:Well, #9 is a polish thats about a 3-4 on Meg's abrasive scale (don't have it infront of me right now...) and it has a few fillers in it as well. I say to use it so that you get rid of the swirls and then to use the AIO to remove any fillers or oils that it left behind.
Yes, you can use ZFX with the Z1 and Z2. You should not have to use the Z5 if you polish out all your swirl marks (with #9 or DACP or w/e, depends on what condition your paint is in). You could use the Z5 though, if there are a few remaining marks.
By the time you're ready for PS, your paint should be pretty close to perfect. I definately would not put Z5 over the PS because its meant to go over the Zaino sealant and not a carnuaba topper. You could add more layers or PS if you do come across scratches. It may fill them in with some success. Good Luck!
