Zaino: the miracle, magical solution

This happens to me from time to time. I get to looking at the white Jag, totally "zing"-less, and think, "OK, it's time to try a different product on her." Happened last weekend. Then early this week, I put in one of my curbside/detailing-past-midnight sessions on her. And fell in love with Zaino all over again.



But this time, there was a new wrinkle: As I started washing the lower rockers, I noticed some really hideous slings of tar on the lower rockers. And said to myself, "uh-oh, gonna have to bring out the big guns to get rid of those." Wrong-o! I attacked them with my Z7 and older chenille mitt, and those puppies came right off with minimal scrubbing, and without resort to any tar removers or more aggressive scrubbers. :shocked Was I shocked? You betcha. And thrilled to boot.



Mind you, I'm not saying Zaino is the only sealant that will do this. But for my money, the way Zaino (and probably other sealants) (a) cuts down on the difficulty and time-consumption of my washes and (b) reduces my need for my aggressive cleaners makes all those online orders and shipping fees well worth the money.
 
S100 will do the same. I've gotten tar on my lower rocker panels too, and they easily wash off in 99% of the cases. Pretty much any properly waxed surface will allow most tar to be washed off without resorting to tar removers or polish...as long as you don't let it sit for a few weeks, that is.



Makes a good case to keep your car waxed and wash it regularly!
 
Good point, Scottwax! And, yeah, after I got the white Jag all clean and sparkly, I added a coat of my recently-acquired S100. The look is nice, though I can't really say S100 added anything to the Zaino reflectance and shine. But we're always looking for that silver bullet, arent' we? :D
 
Lynn if I recall correctly your Jag is white?



When I switched from Zaino to Megs Gold Class I did a side by side comparison and noticed that the Zaino side was very very reflective and the GC side was very deep and enhanced my metallics. The S100 went a step beyond the GC as far as depth and improved the gloss as well.



I don't know if you would notice those subtle differences on white?
 
I used to use gold class on my white truck and have since switched to zaino. In my case GC doesn't hold a candle to the durability, reflectivity, and slickness of zaino. The durability is what got me looking for something different. I had several coats of GC on my truck which I wash at least once a week normally. We had a two week period where it rained almost the whole time. When the rain cleared I started to wash my truck and noticed the lack of beading and difficulty in cleaning. It was as if it had no protection at all. Since the zaino switch my weekly details are much quicker and easier and the durability is unmatched with any products I have tried.
 
I just tried S100 on my Zaino-layered car. Can't say that it changed the shine that greatly, but I came out of a restaurant after eating dinner and there were a couple of huge bird bombs on my car! :scared



A quick spritz of Z6 on a cloth, and the semi-dried excrement came off cleanly, with no impairment of the surface layer!



Thank you, S100! :up
