Question blk. car owners what wax do you use???

I have a blk 96 ws6 ta and the paint looks great few pics on my cheesy site in sig I just want to use the best wax or polish i can for the money and still get that deep wet look the kit wax gives this car.

i know its cheap and isnt good for the paint but it works and makes the paint look and feel as smoth as glass

Thanks Steve

I use Zanio, and I love it. I would tell you which ones I use, but I would probably tell you the wrong ones.

Another vote for Zaino. We have a black Grand Am GT and Zaino makes it look awesome. Zaino is great for cars of all colors but the difference is really noticable on darker colored cars. If you have any questions, you can e-mail Sal directly and he can help you out or feel free to ask us.

I live in Surrey, B.C., Canada; is Zaino available locally, or would I have to order it and get it shipped to me?

Be sure to check out www.zainobros.com for Canadian orders. Sal has an e-mail address for all Canadian orders on the "Order Form" link, it's at the bottom of the order form. You can also ask him directly if there are any distributors up there as well.

Question

I too own a Black transAm and want the best wax for my car. I checked out the website, and zaino offers so many different products. What should I order? Thanks for the help.

Same here. It's not very often I can take all day to keep putting on the differant zaino's....nor do I have a garage to let the car sit between coatings. What is the 'minimum' zaino I could use and still get great results?

I would say that a basic kit should contain Z-1 (Polish Lok), Z-2 Clear Coat Polish, Z-6 Gloss Enhancer Spray (great for maintaining), and Z-7 Car Wash. This should cost you around $40 plus s/h unless you have a distributor in your area (in which case, no s/h).

However, if you have swirl marks, you may want to grab some Z-5, it helps to reduce swirl marks with each successive application. Also, if your paint is rough to the touch or you have some pesky bug stains, pick up the Z-18 Clay bar. Always be sure to use 100% cotton towels (made in the USA) and use Sal's applicator pads. Follow Sal's instructions to the 'T' and you can't go wrong.
