Zaino Z8 Grand Finale Spray
I recently Zainoed my new C6 Triple Black Vert with the required products. Dawn wash, followed by claybar with Z6, then Z7 wash, Z5 with ZFX, Z6, Z2 with ZFX, Z6, and then another coat of Z2 with ZFX. Slowly learned to use very little Zano when applying.
I then used Zaino Z8 as the very last layer on the car....and all I can say is "UNBELIEVABLE"!
Not only did it deepen the shine, it also covered the last few scratches and swirl marks in the car. Now, I have to admit that the scratches and swirl marks were very shallow because it was a new car, but nonetheless the Z8 hid them completely. But I am completely **** about my cars.
I do not think that the Z8 removed the marks, just hid them. Now, how long will they stay hidden...I don't know....
But Z8 is fantastic in my book, and even though it is expensive, it is worth every penny.
And, no, I have no affiliation with Zaino....My only connection with them is that I love black cars when they look great...

Z8 adds extra durability and has good staying power, but with Z2 Pro or Z5 under it, it's hard to determine its exact length.
I had 2 coats of Z5 on my car for about 7 months. I began using the Z8 on the upper portions of my car around month 5-6, and noticed that by month 7 the lower portions weren't beading much at all while the upper portions were.
