This weekend I use Zanio's AIO and CS. Went on and off very easy. Use a DA to put on the AIO. CS by hand.



The results on a dark gray car, nice, no big deal. As nice as anything I every used.



I hope the durability holds up as advertised, otherwise at the price I paid, I would feel really disappointed.
 
SOme people are reporting 6 months and then some with good beading. I did not have the same success, but many factors come in. Good luck with your purchase.
 
As a newbie can you explain the acronym's AIO & CS. I also use Zanio's but am only familiar with Zanio 2 mixed with fx (Acccelerator).
 
Harv, Would love to see some pics of your dark gray car. I am 1 week short of 3 months with ZAIO alone on 90% of my daily driver (hood has CS over ZAIO) Still looks very good, I will give it a hose wash soon to see how the beading looks.



Louis, ZAIO is zaino's all in one and CS is the new Clear Seal. Clear Seal is a wipe on and walk away product. No need to buff it off.

I'm right there with you. It doesn't seem to be that big of a deal and looks no better then other stuff.

I quess to each their own. I did my mom's 95 camaro with ZAIO, CS. On the hood I did ZAIO, Z5pro and CS. This car sits out 24/7, has snow removal scratches and acid rain etching. From a few feet away the car looks like it has been sprayed with a fresh coat of paint.

True but it is a very easy combo and no mixing! :)



Based on what I have heard, it should hold up as well as the Werkstatt twins, which would be in the several month range.

Here is how the beading of ZAIO looked at 50 days on my beater. This was before a Z7 wash:

After a Z7 wash the same day:

I am now nearing 90 days, still have not used any Z6/8 on the car. Just QEW or Z7 washes. She still looks very good.
 
I put CS on my car about 10 days ago after I clayed and polished. I was less than impressed with the beeding after the first rain. But, the ease of application and fact it doesn't stain trim sure is nice.
 
Tabinha, how did you apply the CS? ie: how many pumps per panel and did you spray directly onto paint or onto an applicator and spread? How long did it take to cure?

half the hood was done with Zaio and CS the other half with Polisea and Aquawax... which side doesn't matter, because they look similiar. The hood is fresh! (Zaio has a nice look imo)



Now look at the fender. That is Poliseal a couple layers of Aquawax applied in November and December...seems to be holding up just fine in the rainy Northwest.



On the topic of beading.



Zaio + CS + Aquawax

vs just Zaio + CS

I have no doubts that the CS beading will show no degredation over the next couple of months, but I don't have an issue adding a little protection more than twice a year...
