I have been putting off starting to use Zaino for quite awhile, and as winter is starting to come here I am mainly worried about the damage the salt and other chemicals we use on our roads are going to do to my Mystic Teal paint on my Camaro. So I do have a few questions especially as it is rather cold now (below 10 degrees celcius):

Will the cure time or amount of products I use change than the recommended because of the cold?

Will snow/freezing rain still bead up? How should I remove it?

How should I remove road salt and other dirt that gives your cars that wonderful white color without scratching the paint?

Should I protect the T-Top/window seals with anything before the extreme cold? (sometimes up to -30)

Will Zaino's protection be able to stand the extreme weather?

Is there any other prep steps I should take before starting in the cold? instead of the normal dawn wash/z7 car wash then claybar to zaino products.

If there are any other tips or advice you guys have for a newbie Zaino user please let me know, especially anything to make it easier in the cold

Appreciate your time and responses,

Thanks alot.

No, with ZFX activation, this is not a problem.

Will snow/freezing rain still bead up? How should I remove it?

You don't, if you have something frozen on the surface of the car, do not try to remove it until is melts, trying to do so would be like rubbing a rock over the surface, scratching will result.

How should I remove road salt and other dirt that gives your cars that wonderful white color without scratching the paint?

Hand wash the car with a car soap and cotton wash mit, keep the mit fresh and washed out many times during washing and before laying hands on the car do a lot of pre rinsing.

Should I protect the T-Top/window seals with anything before the extreme cold? (sometimes up to -30)

Some people use Dielectric Grease, but there are many products you can buy that are good for seals, our Z-16 Tire Gloss is great for that.

Will Zaino's protection be able to stand the extreme weather?

Yes, cold and heat have no effect on the synthetic properties of Zaino.

Is there any other prep steps I should take before starting in the cold? instead of the normal dawn wash/z7 car wash then claybar to zaino products.

Not really.
