You will love it. Just make sure you apply it thin. Less is more with Zaino.

Have you ever used it before? Will you be applying by hand or buffer? Check PM.

Good stuff.

I would suggest a good polishing of swirls/scratches first.

Default Love Zaino

I am really happy with the way my car came out. You will love it. Good Luck. Pics below which don't do the results justice. It pops even more in person.

Looks great Zaino has a great array of products for everything. Great shine, durability and simple to use.

In my opinion, that color and sunset orange metallic are simply stunning with Zaino. The more metallic, the better. It is so unfair! LOL
It sure looks great. Keep in mind that it will get better the more that you put on.

Not sure as to what this is based on, but you can be done in a one day session. wash, dry, clay, polish, apply Zaino's. Since this will be your initial setup, should take you about 5 hours or so. You will not be disappointed in the results.

Yes, I do cars in one day all the time. And that is a full detail not just a zaino job.

Finally used the Zaino products . We stripped and clayed the car, washed it again, used Z5 then Z6 . We also used the leather treatment products and the tire gloss . It took the wife and I 6 hours start to finish for 1 coat . The car has never looked better . Looking forward to a few more coats of Z5 & Z6 then some Z2 .

You've got the hardest part done now. Prepping the finish for Zaino.
Future coats of Z5 Pro and or Z2 Pro with Z6 wipe downs in between will take 15 to 30 minutes.
Try a search for Wolfdogs and check out his Zaino'd Vette. Impressive to say the least.
