I confess, I have been a Zaino user for years. I must have 50 coats of it on the Z. Recently, I have been talking to Adam about possibly converting to his products and have to say was very skeptical that anything could compete with the shine of the Zaino.
Well, Adam made the trip out to my house in NJ to prove his products are the best. He worked with me and my cars for a couple of hours while I bounced from vehicle to vehicle with every detailing challenge I could think of at the time. Swirl marks on my black Z, ancient bug shield on the Suburban, Water marks on the Windshield of the GTO, and the finale...mega spotted wheels on my F250. He solved every one of the problems I could find. I ran out of problems for him to solve. He answered all my questions, and believe me I have alot of them. Call it the engineer in me, but I seem to need to know everything.
Awesome products and some of the best customer support I have ever had the opportunity to experience. The fact that he would take time out of his vacation to come out to my house and work on my cars is a testimony to his business practices.
I can honestly say that Adam has won my business
Oh, and just wait until his new polish hits the market....I currently have it on half my hood and Zaino on the other half....the Zaino can't compete.
have had the pleasure of dealing with ADAM'S reps here in MD. great guys and a great product. never once did they put ZAINO down. will be giving them a try this spring-use ZAINO at this time.
I have always heard great things about Zaino, but never wanted any part of it because of how labor intensive it sounds.
Is Adam's as labor intensive / time consuming as Zaino, or less??
i have 4 vettes with zaino on them over the past 3 yrs,, up until the last 6 months, ive been really happy with zaino, but lately the zaino is sticking to the car??? never has before, you cant rub hard enough to get the z5 or z2 off,, i have to spritz it with the liquid z(whatever),, so,, that brings me to adams, for christmas i decided to buy a line full of adams and a porter cable to use on a 95 pace car that i just bought,, stripped all the old wax off and now using the porter cable to remove lots of minor swirls and scratches,,ive got them off to 95% satisfied, but im not satisfied yet with the depth or shiny 'wet' look im use to with zaino's,, adams reps are talking me thru steps but not 100% convienced that im gonna see that deeeeep weeeet shine i like,, later rj
Did you strip the zaino off first or just use the Adam's product over it?
Adam indicated it was unnecessary since the Revive/Swirl remover products would remove it anyway.

Have not used it on the whole car yet, but the areas I wiped off made it seem much easier to remove. Zaino did not ever seem to come off this easy.

Will take some this weekend when I can pull the car out in the sun (some of us leave for work before it gets light and return home when it is dark this time of year). Hopefully, pictures will capture what I see in person.

No, I never tried ZPC so I suppose I may be making an unfair comparison to the Z5. Z5 is marketed for Swirl and Scratch, but it never seemed to work well.
I met Adam at A&A's barbq a couple of years ago. He was demonstrating his products on many of the cars there and I was impressed. Told the wife, I was gonna buy a detail kit before the end of the day. As luck would have it, I ended up winning a detail kit during the raffle. That was over 2 years ago and I have since purchased refills for many of the products including the detail spray, VRT, and the spray glaze. The stuff works great and like others have said, it is so much easier to use then other products I've tried. You should atleast try the stuff and see for yourself.
