Most car care products are formulated with a silicone to aid lubrication and spreading ability

Some paint sealants (polymers) contain wax; the longevity of a sealant is due to the type of silicone (usually amino-functional silicone) and or polymer that is used in its formulation. Polymers sealants require a paint to catatonically bond to; they will not bond directly to metal to provide protection.

I am not stating categorically that Zaino or that all (polymer) sealants contain silicone just that most of them do.

Could you quote your source, I've tried searching for an MSDS but could not locate one.

I had expected a more succinct answer than a just another question from a senior forum contributor?

You may not have stated it categorically but you certainly implied it.

If your truly interested about Zaino and silicone why not call Sal? He is very accessible and more then willing to talk about his products. Since Sal produces his own products using his own formulas I'm sure he knows exactly what is and isn't in his products.

I personally asked Sal about this once and he told me that Zaino does NOT contain silicone oils, wax or any carnuaba. I hope this helps answer your questions.

Let’s just put that down to the difference between English and US English. I never imply anything if I don’t know, I don’t know but will try to find out, hence my question

Could you please tell me where to find the MSDS, I like to have back-up for any product I make a claim about.

Thanks again for the info on Zaino
