Zaino Store

this shit is bomb ass pussy for my 2nd gen.. def use the gloss enhancer and the tire gloss.. it doesn't turn yoru tires brown, and doesn't splatter against your paint when you drive after application, the gloss enhancer prolongs time between waxes.. I've drove 21k miles in 6 months, and the front of my car still looks brand new ) yay for touch up paint and zaino bros.. lololol My friend used to use it on his show supra and he gave me the remainder of a few of his bottles and i was hooked

and of course i have all there car care products, but i haven't got around to clay barring or any of them goodies yet, so i can't share with you there performance, but if its anything like there other every wash use products.. i'm sure its simply amazing

I can also give a thumbs up for the Zaino products. I have just recieved my new shipment for this year... truely the easiest product to apply with the best results..

Been using this stuff for 10 years now so I can confirm all you say... also helps to have friend who is the AZ distributor

I also have used for many years an aerosol window cleaning product by a company named "Sprayway" that I pick up at Costco in a 4 pack.

What I like about it is has no ammonia but still cuts the grease well especially the film that forms on the inside windshield from the out-gassing of the dash. The stuff is very versatile as I can use directly on my window film inside the car too (I use only with a clean white cotton tee shirt to prevent scratching).

Also, since we are talking "tip-top" shape here and this may be a little anal but... After I clean the outside windshield with paper towels (I prefer Costco's brand as they are both strong and contain no dyes) I spray the tires and wheels with the Sprayway window cleaner and use the dampened towels to remove the road film.

This works well if the wheels are relatively clean and mostly dusty, not soiled like after a rain. It's my evening ritual right after I dust the car.

Also, the wife donates all old 100% cotton bath towels for car care use. After washing I always use two good size towels to dry with. The first one soaks up most of the water and the 2nd to fully dry.

Here's my secret for a sparkling engine: after the car and wheels are dry, I use both towels to wipe down the engine - don't laugh just look at pics below. BTW, if you do this from day one every time you wash the car you never need to steam clean or use harsh chems to clean engines. It also helps you spot any leaks right away.

Twice a year I spray all weather seals (doors, trunk, hoses, etc.) with pure silicon spray and wipe excess off. With extreme temps here this really makes a big difference.

Do you use a buffer or orbiter cable or do you do it by hand?
If you do use a orbiter cable what kind do you have and how much do they run?

some by hand, like the zymol liquid auto polish as this is a mild paint cleaner rather than a corrective polish...paint correction requires the use of my orbital, which is a pretty cheap bosch unit from the local hardware shop.

So I've used Zaino on my car and I'm sure it protects my car great but I am annoyed with the water beading. The reason why I'm annoyed is that water beads make a car far harder to dry and when I look at my car compared to all of my neighbors cars after a rain or morning mist, my car's full of water beads while their cars are dry.

^^umm
but im sure their paint looks a lot worse.
it comes with the territory bud.

[i2ide]

you should be happy that it beads like that
