You'll find more answers than you have questions here.

Presonally, I'm an Adam's man. Others Like Zaino, but people paid me to detail their cars, so I use the best.

I've used them all and zaino rocks. Frequency depends on climate and whether your car stays outside or in a garage. I'd say Zaino is good for 6 months plus you are always doing touch ups.

Zaino is layered- I have 10 coats on my car - the finish is like a mirror
