Default Z-5 polish over Klasse AIO and Klasse Sealant

If you use Z-5 as a swirl remover on another car that isn't a Zainoed car will the Z-5 still be effective?
I was thinking of using the Z-5 over the Klasse Sealant to see if I can cover up those little scratches and swirls.

You would be putting sealant over sealant, Z-5 works to make light swirl marks less noticeable by covering them up, Z-5 does not remove swirl marks, for that you need abrasives. Try a small area and let us know what happens.

Alot of people on autopia use Z5 or Z2 over Klasse AIO with great results. I have not tried it so cannot tell you from personal experience if it works or not. I prefer to remove as many of the swirls as I can with an abrasive and then follow up with Z5. Rumor has it that Zaino is working on a paint cleanser that will answer all of our problems.

FWIW AIO is my 'base' for all sealents/waxes

Default What if you have already put 2 coats of Klasse AIO on and 2 coats of Klasse Sealant?

This is for the color Arctic White can the Z-2 be used for the minor swirls because before I used the Klasse system you could not see the swirls or scratches but after using the Klasse products it exposed the marks, scratches and swirls more.

How about claybar then use AIO again then apply the Z-5 on top to hide minor scratches and swirls?

That would work. Don't expect miracles with the swirls.
