I was actually a Blue Coral user before Zaino. But never more. I love the fact that after the clay bar and polishing with about half a dozen coats you can just use the enhancer to bring out the shine and smooth finish after washing it 2 months down the road.
"Zaino is the God of polishes" :eek:
 
Zaino is the real thing. I've got six coats on and it really, really stands out in a crowd.

I ought to get a referral fee for putting several others onto Zaino after seeing mine!
 
I am yet to buy some but will be purchasing some Zaino here in a few weeks...can't help but here so many good things about it....and nothing but the best for my Av.... ;D
 
Most products are all good. The polymers offer better protection from mother nature in the long run though.
 
Maguire's is my old habit . . . maybe I too should bite the Zaino bullet given all the endorsement on this site!
 
Maguire's for me too...just used some Cleaner Wax to get out very stubborn water spots. Worked great, but I'll probably go for some Zaino as well. Less rub, more shine sounds good to me ;D
 
I have also tried all the waxes and after hearing of Zaino on this site I purchased all the Zaino items and am very happy with the results.

Like Chevylover, I only used Blue Coral. My dad taught me when I was a youngun that Blue Coral/Blue Poly was the best stuff.

Well, I learned here that Zaino is far better. Still waiting for a decent weekend here in Minnesota so I can have my first Zaino experience.

I've always used Maguires and still love their products but with a Black Av the Pinnacle Souveran wax is unbelievable. Thanks for the tip Chief.
 
I use Maguires, but I'm thinking of trying Zaino when my Maguires runs out to see if I notice a difference in the amount of work it takes to apply or in the amount of shine.
 
Okay, I went to the Zaino site and found a ton of products. What are the basic must have products for a good Av detail? Oh yeah, I got leather seats.
:B:
 
Im a Zymol user. ?I know most of you think its a waste to use but my 1988 Ford Bronco II I sold to get the AVY got treated with Zymol got $6300.00 for that truck (MINT condition). ?Just my opinion ?AJ ?

Nothing wrong with the look of Zymol products...it does do a good job....I just feel there are other products that will give you the same look for less money.....

For a great carnuaba try a jar of Pinnacle Souveron Paste wax....It is amazing stufff for a great shine...does not last long but looks great.


PS Zymol is a manufacturer of car detailing products....They have several items....Try a web search.

HTH
 
Fine scratches on the painted chrome of my grill are appearing. Any techniques to remove them?
 
Zymol - Great wax that provided a glass surface - especially after 2-3 coats. ?I think I would switch to Zaino, but I am too lazy to write a check and send off an envelope. ?If they offered on-line ordering - I would probably already try it.

Hey Zaino Brothers! ?How about moving up from the 1970's and offer on-line ordering of your product?? ?

Irontrain,
Did you wash your Av with Dawn and clay the surface before you waxed with Zaino? It appears that the shine you get is directly related to how well you prepare the surface of the paint before you install their product.

I was the same as you. Yesterday I decided to bite the bullet and write a check. But I was suprised to see that they indeed do have an ecommerce site.
They are developing the online ordering system, and I placed an order. It seemed to work fine.
Here is how you get to it: Click on their order form, and you will see an email address at the top of it. Send an email to that address, and they will send you a auto-reply with the web address and password.
Hope this helps.
