In the "Car Care Products" section of the Forum, there is quite a bit of information about Zainos and other products, but when it comes down to it, all of it is subjective. I am no expert myself, but I like the product for a couple of reasons:

1) It gives a really nice deep shine, that deepens with every coat.
2) In a hot climate, it is easy to use because it seems to get easier to wipe off the more it cures.

Again this topic get discussed a lot, especially in the Car Care Section, so if you do a search, you will find infinite information.

3) VERY durable
4) VERY slick
5) Can intermix all Zaino products
6) Won't discolor or mess up trim

Ah, the good ol' alka seltzer theme.

All you will want to find out is right in this forum and the car care section. Crawfish and vizette summed it up and you won't need power tools to get the deepest shine.
