Question for Zaino Users
I am curious as to the opinion of Zaino users on which leaves a better shine: 2 coats of Z-2/ZFX or one coat followed by a coat of Z-CS (Clear Seal).

IMO two coats of Z2. I use Clear seal prior to a trip for a quick coat on the front and mirrors. I do not beleive it has the lasting capabilities of Z2 nor the shine

One coat of Z2-PRO finished with Z6. This was my new Stingray's first detail.
I have since layered 3 more coats of Z2-PRO with Z6 but have now finished with Z8.
I don't have any photos after Z8 but I will tell the shine is beyond anything I have ever achived using ZAINO for over 15 years.

At my detail shop, we will put on light to medium colors, and consider red a medium color, 3 coats of Z-2 on solid color paint, on metallics 2 Z-2, topped off with CS.
On dark colored cars the same 3 Z-5's on solids, 2 Z-5's and CS on metallics. All are topped with Z-8. We also put a Z-6 after every coat, except the last.
Something so unique about CS on metallics that just makes them look very unique.

After a complete machine polish everything looks good. Two coats of Z2p makes sure that everything got covered with no open spots and will hold up for a bit longer. The CS will add to the prep work….
