I want to put 2 coats of zaino polish on my black car. Is it better to do 2 layers of Z5 or 1 layer of Z5 followed by a layer of Z2?



Thanks guys
 
I would say it comes down to personal preferance.When i used Zaino, i liked the look of Z5 more than Z2, so i would allways just apply several coats of Z5 and finish with Z8.



I have not used the new Z5Pro, so i do not know how it compares looks wise to Z2Pro,but if you think that your paint would benifit from the 'mild' filling aspect of Z5Pro, then i would suggest applying several coats first until you are happy,and then apply the Z2Pro and see if 'you' like how it looks over Z5Pro.
 
For dark cars, most people use Z5p.



Personally, I like the way Z2p looks, so you can put 2 coats of Z5p ENABLED with ZFX, and the last coat of Z2p ENABLED with ZFX.
 
depending on your color. If it is a medium to dark color, then Z5pro (zfx'd)x2, Z2 pro or CS. You could use all 3 if you want max gloss and reflectivity. On light colors Z2 pro x2, and CS.
 
I think I would go with Z5-Pro too. Also, I don't know about others' experiences, but I never felt like the filling aspects of Z5 were ever very noticeable. I would just use it because of how it looked, rather than the supposed filling.
 
I do one coat of each on any color especially black. Z2Pro doesn't do anything to a layer of Z5Pro except make it wetter, but maybe now with CS the good combo is Z5Pro foloowed by CS. I haven't been using CS long enough to say, but I definetly use Z5Pro and Z2Pro together when I use Zaino. CS looks pretty promising as far as looks goes too.
 
I'm about to try Zaino for the first time. My paint is white and I understand that I should use Z2pro, but how would Z5pro look. I prefer the wet look. Any muting of color?

I think Edwin puts Z5pro on his while escalade. It will be fine.
