Zaino
It still amazes me every time I use this stuff, 16 year old paint job that's still got it. 👍🏻

Very Impressive. I have heard lots of good stuff about Zaino!

Looks great, thanks for sharing. Been wanting to try Zaino, just haven't got it yet.

I used to use Zaino, but haven't in a while. I'm using Collinite now and loving it! Duragloss is a good one too, and all 3 are about equal in terms of both looks and durability, IMO...

I actually took my sweet a%# time when I did it, took me a few days total, weather was poor so I took advantage of it and hung but in the garage fender here, trunk there, y'all know what I mean, I really enjoy doing it, nothing like once your finished sitting back and admiring the results.
Now my wife (different story) when I do that to her ride, she has no problem jumping right in it and heading out in a torrential down pour, drives me nuts.

I think as long as you know how to clean a car properly you can get good results with most products, but some products are just much easier to get there with, and at 54 years old I want all the advantage I can get

I used to use Zaino too. Never had any complaints...i'm just too old to do all that by hand now so I invested in some power tools lol! I use adams stuff now.

Never heard of Adams...good stuff? I'm too chicken to use power buffers...I'm always afraid I'm gonna burn the paint, or leave swirl marks...I still do everything by hand....it's a lotta work, but very satisfying too!

So true. I usually give the vehicle a good once over with a clay bar, and then the rest usually goes pretty easy...and these waxes today go on and come off so easy, and they last quite a while too...

Never heard of Adams? Really?
lol
Anyway...I bought a random action buffer. Yes if you use a unit like the pros use, which just rotates in a fixed pattern, you can easily burn through the paint. With a random action (it rotates and oscillates so the pad is always moving even if you're not), you would have to hold the tool in place for a few minutes to create enough heat to damage anything. If that. I've never heard of anyone damaging their paint with one of those.

looks great...I recently bought another Polish from Zaino. for some reason it was harder to remove and did not have that sweet smell. It seemed to me that something changed.

Have wanted to try Zaino for a long time but they make it so complicated with all the different polishes.
N00b like me is not willing to make the purchase.
It's my opinion but it seems like the entire world of polishes has gotten too complex.
It actually deters people like me, i'm a dumbazz though.
