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.
OK this sounds too good to be true. I have seen Adams products b-4 but I have to ask some questions. Does Adams repel dust the way Zaino does? Does Adams have a scratch remover like Zaino? I have used Zaino for a while and although I like what you are saying Headhunter, but after 10+ coats of Zaino, it is hard to beat the ease of the application of Zaino 2 & the Grand Finally detail spray. I know the ease of using Zaino & you do too. I would consider both being top quality products & price is no problem but ease of application means alot. Dust repelling means alot. I have heard other Adams claims but yours is the most convincing statement yet. I am just not convinced to give up my quality product with easy application for another quality product that I am not sure of application yet. Does that make since? I hope so......

I don't know about the "way", since I've never tried Zaino, but it sure does a great job of it Does Adams have a scratch remover like Zaino? I don't know that one either for the same reasonI have used Zaino for a while and although I like what you are saying Headhunter, but after 10+ coats of Zaino, it is hard to beat the ease of the application of Zaino 2 & the Grand Finally detail spray.

I don't think he's trying to convince anyone... he's just sharing his experience I am just not convinced to give up my quality product with easy application for another quality product that I am not sure of application yet.

I think making more of this than intended.. he was simply stating his experience... I don't think he was trying to do a commercial and sell you, or anyone else, anything.
I'd say try some for yourself and see... but if you're strictly looking to compare products to justify your loyalty to Zaino, than I don't think you'd like anything else... not very easily at least.

As time goes by, I will know more, but I had swirls in my paint that the Zaino Z5 was doing nothing to solve. I kept trying and put more and more on the car. A combination of 2/3 Adams Revive and 1/3 scratch and swirl remover, combined with the Porter cable unit and they are gone. I was taking the polish off with a microfiber towel (also Adam provided) and it was coming off much more easily than the Zaino has in the past. I honestly cannot speak to the dust repelling qualities yet since I will have to wait and see, but I was impressed with everything else so far.

I will probably try some. I didn't think he was doing a commercial but I did think he was very convincing. Headhunter sounds like a diehard Zaino user & has made the switch and has almost convincing me to do the same. That is why I asked the questions that I did. Not to beat a dead hourse but there are tons of threads for both. What I have NOT seen is a lot of threads of Adams users switching over to Zaino.(even more convincing) I am not loyal to Zaino but like everyone here.....I just want the best for my car........

The dust is my only question now and that may not be a big issue. Ease of application was my biggest question.
I used Adams #1 & #2 Metal Polish on my wheels. It did a great job cleaning them and provided a reasonably good shine; however, I needed to use Zaino to get them really shiny. Great cleaner and will continue to use it on my wheels, plus Z2 & Z6.

That's not quite a fair comparison. Z5 is not a swirl remover, its a polish. Did you try ZPC on your swirls? No doubt Adams is a great line of products, but its unfair to say "Zaino polish didn't remove my swirls but Adams Swirl Remover did, so it must be better".
