Do you wash your cars to get the streaks out or am I putting this stuff on wrong .
No matter how many coats of Zaino I put on it , I have to wash the car before a car show to make it look right .

Sounds like you are using too much polish... try less.. it REALLY goes far.

Also, a nice Z6 wipedown should clean up any streaks... just use it sparingly too.

Less is best with Zaino. You just barely want to see it.

My son can do one entire application with just a little more than 1/4 oz., I use about 1/2 oz. per application.

Applying it too thick is about the only way you can have a problem using Zaino.

Using too much....

I had the same problem the 1st time I tried Zaino, and I told my distributor about it, and that WAS the problem.

Yep, you are using way too much. You should barely be able to see it on a car. It will be weird the first couple of times, but you really need to use less.

Check out Sal's tips on the Zaino website. If you follow those, you can't go wrong.

Also, make SURE you are using a WHITE 100% COTTON MADE IN THE USA towel. This has a lot to do w/ wax coming off correctly.

GOOD luck!

How much Zaino do you use to do your car? You should be able to get 2-3 coats per oz, many f-body owners get 3-4 coats per oz.
