Will this process work? I ask because the Z5pro layer is not zfx'd.
Normal prep, wash, clay, polish
Then
ZAIO
Z5Pro
ZFX'd Z2Pro x2 or x3
Z8
Thanks,

If you're trying to do this all in one day I'd do:
ZFX'd Z-AIO
ZFX'd Z-5Pro
Z-6
Z-2Pro
Z-8 (remember that this takes 24 hours before it looks it's best)
No more than 3 ZFX-enabled coats in 24 hours - even with the accelerator it needs to cure.
The car should pretty much look like a mirror then.
From Zaino's website:
Can I use the ZFX additive with Z-AIO?
Yes. While ZFX is not required for use with Z-AIO, ZFX will heighten gloss & slickness, and extend the durability of Z-AIO. If you choose to use ZFX with Z-AIO, use the same ZFX instructions as you would with Z-2 PRO or Z-5 PRO.
What if I want to apply Z-2 PRO or Z-5 PRO on top of Z-AIO?
You will certainly be very happy with the results. As curing is not required with Z-AIO when used with our protectants, you can apply Z-2 PRO or Z-5 PRO immediately after wiping the residue of Z-AIO.
For subsequent applications of Z-2 PRO or Z-5 PRO, ZFX is not required unless you want to apply multiple coats of product in quick succession (this is a benefit of using ZFX). Z-2 PRO or Z-5 PRO without ZFX can optionally be applied no more than once every 8-12 hours. However, if you choose to apply ZFX enabled Z-2 PRO or Z-5 PRO on top of Z-AIO, follow the respective directions for those Zaino protectants.
Will I need ZFX for use with Z-2 PRO or Z-5 PRO after using Z-AIO?
Not unless you plan to accelerate cure time and apply multiple coats of Z-2 PRO or Z-5 PRO within a 12 hour period. After using Z-AIO initially, you may continue to apply layers of Z-2 PRO or Z-5 PRO as long as you continue to see beading as a sign of durability, without needing Z-AIO as a pre-cleaner or conditioner.
