Hey, for those that use the Zaino Tire Care stuff, does it work well? It says that its not real glossy, iss that true? I like the wet glossy look, but dont like how all the other brands sling off onto the wheel and paint. How do you guys like it?

I use Z-16 on my tires and it works great. It does not spin off like others I have tried. However it does not have as a high gloss as others. It does give your tires a nice wet look. The best pic I have of what it looks like on a tire is called "Another pic." Just got the the link in my sig and go to the Camaro SS folder. It is not the best pic but it gives you some idea of what it looks like.

Maybe someone else has a better pic. Hope this helps.

Hey CamaroHeed, I know what you mean about the stuff getting onto the paint. I've been using the high-gloss meguiars stuff and while I like the shine, I know I'll be wiping it off the excess.

I have noticed though, to reduce the excess stuff flinging, is to let it dry well. Oh well...I just can't take those sprays. Last about two days. Later

Ya I have used the McGuires, its ok, I now have the Turtle Wax stuff and it seems to work really well. Doesnt really fling off too bad and stays glossy for a while. Just wondered if the Zaino was better. I guess Ill stick to my glossy Turtle Wax.

PS- Ya those sprays suck

haven't tried the zaino but out of black magic, meguires, armor all and no touch tire dressing my favorite is the turtle wax stuff.

Haven't had an opportunity to use the Turtle Wax. I use the Meguire's High Gloss Gel. I don't get any fling-back on the 1/4 panels or anywhere else. I use a liberal amount, not too much, it lasts a good week or so. Just have to make sure that you don't have big blobs after appyling the gel w/ the applicator. The spray on stuff... f that crap, too much fling and makes a wonderful mess to clean up.
