Question Curiousity - how many of you use Zaino ?

I hear great things about it - including from my co-worker w/ the '00 SS - but, being the cheap so & so I am stick w/ my $3.99 tins of Kit wax.

These have served me well, and that's what the prior owner used as well.


Just curious as to the ratios of who does & who doesn't.


Thanks !

Britt

Next time you are in San Antonio give me a call and I will Zaino your car. Once you see what it can do you will never go back to regular wax.

Once I put one coat on my car, I swore I'd never use anything else.

I just use mothers I've never seen anything that would set zaino apart from what I use but I also haven't seen it in person takes more than pics for me to spend that much on wax

I've never used Zaino. Meguiars is the best that I've ever used...

I sometimes use the blue zymol (I think that was the name). I saw an online comparison with Zaino and it was almost as good as the Zaino.

I've seen the Zaino...it did look good. If someone were to ask me if it was better than a regular wax...from 2-3 ft away...I'd say its not worth the difference.

just my 2 cents...

It may not look better from that far away, but wax's main purpose is to protect, which Zaino does the best without competition.

You can feel the difference.

I have been thinking of trying Zaino on my white car but I don't know if it is worth it. White cars don't show off a good wax job very well. Any of you have pics of a white car using Zaino?

My 92 RS, which I no longer have, was Arctic White..... When I used Meguiars on it, It was beautiful... I could see my reflection easily on the surface...
From my experience and from pics that I have seen, there really is no reason to use something as expensive as Zaino....

Zaino

I was a Meguier user for over 15 years until I tried Zaino. Nothing else will ever touch my cars. I have 63 coats on mine right now. Truly incredible stuff.
