I use Zaino as well. Definitely more work to apply Zaino than Chadwicks. There's not even a comparison. Why I would never use Chadwicks is because you don't "wash" your car anymore. I just can't fathom spraying something on my car and wiping it off. To me that would just induce a crap ton of swirl marks. It may not be an issue but if you have caked on bugs, mud, whatever it may be, I can't see how the product can safely remove it without damaging your paint.
It doesn't. I drive my car several times a week, washed it only once in the last three years and it looks better than the day I bought it. I use a California duster to get the big stuff. Then Chadwick it. Takes about 5 minutes and it always looks like I just waxed it.
P.S. Make sure you always use a clean microfiber towel.

YEP !!!!!!!!!!! the micro fiber towels absorb the crap, you just need to follow directions !!!!!
Pounder... don't be gun shy on my account. People should support those products which serve them well. I am all for that.
You just misunderstood me on the Chadwick's going bad Thread, I was just asking how much Zaino costs because I never bought any ???? We all are never going to agree on everything, doesn't mean I don't have respect for who ever !!!! If I used Zaino first I might never have tried Chadwick's. As Neil says there is plenty of customers to go around !!!

you have more of a chance on scratching your car by traditional washing !! how do think most cars get swirl marks ??? Not by driving !!!
I'm trying Chadwicks and like it so far. Have not done interior yet but plan too. I also like it as I use it like I did Meguiars quick detail... Spay, wipe, buff. Carr looks great and Neil provides some darn good tech support/advice...

That's why I go the two bucket/two(three) mitt method. Once I get a house where I can park my DD in the garage I'll do a paint correction on the hood or something where I can tell whether or not the Chadwicks hurts anything. That won't be for two years probably so it'll be a while. lol
I bought into the hype this year, I still washed it first...it was driven in the rain, WAY too much heavy crap for microfibers to absorb...I think the best bet is a good buff on the paint first, then chadwick away for the rest of the season, as it makes whatever you have shiny and slick, if you start with a turd you end up with a shiny turd... just finished a wash & wick about an hour ago!

I actually removed my swirls using chadwick's paint correction system.....Now I don't have to worry about them coming back with my weekly Triple Play application.
My 13 year old paint came back to life....I originally said this 3 years ago when I started using the product, but the paint correction system brought me back to like new.
All I use on my dash, door panels and seats is a moist cloth, with the occasional use of some mild dishwashing soap mixed in. When using the soap, I follow up with a wipe down with another moist cloth then a soft dry cloth.
I used Chadwicks on my Vette and my wife's MKZ, and it works very well. No more washing and waxing for me. I threw away a bunch of old wax and polish today. I used it for the interior as well as glass, flat screen TV, shower, stainless steel fridge, etc. Love it!!
Use it on my c7 and inside the house. Works great and I replaced all of my harsh chemical cleaners, saved my hands from the bleaching that was going on with the other chemicals. Thanks Chadwicks!
