Post Need Zaino Substitute for a SHORT period of time. HELP ME

Im all out of Z6 and Z7. I dont really care about the Z6 but not having Z7 means not washing my car. I was wondering if I could use another car wash (Meguiars Gold Class or something like that) until I can order some Zaino. Car hasnt been washed in two weeks (normally twice a week) adn its killing me. What can I use for now???

Sure, you can use a temporary car wash without compromising your Zaino protection. In fact, I used Meguiar's Gold Class and High Suds Wash when I ran out of Z7, which is rare now. The Meguiar's soaps are very gentle and don't seem to affect Zaino much at all; they just might not shine as well after the wash like Z7. My first choice for an alternative soap would be Meguiar's, but there are several other brands that should also be pretty safe i.e. Mothers. Just DON'T use dish soap or crap like that, and you'll be fine... until the fresh new bottle of Z7 arrives.

Just make sure it is strickly a soap and contains not "waxes" or other additives. I always order extra supplies, I save more on shipping and always have extras on hand to hold me until the next order comes.
