There is no denying that lots of products could recreate this picture. What divides the masses is how long these products last. I'm a Zaino user because I haven't found anything that keeps working as long. I'm willing to try anything that claims to be better, however, I probably have. 
everyone has choices...Zaino works for me, looks great, and I can take pride in my full morning adventure!

that's my feeling on Rejex also.Put it on and wipe it off, great shine and lasting protection.
I have Zaino also which I've used and mostly just prep with the Z5 then the ZAIO.
Quick and simple and great shine.
And as you mention, "just think there my be such thing as to much shine" I'd have to say I noticed too much shine with the Rejex.
Not complaining but more an observation.
I have to say and agree with the Zaino users, Zaino is very Optically clear and really is great in that respect.
I found the Rejex finish to be sooo shiny, it actually looks like a coat of glass on the car and would reflect light and not show/let the color of the paint through.
Others have mentioned putting their favorite wax or detail spray over the Rejex for a softer richer look to the finish.
My application now consist of Rejex topped off with 303 Speed Detailer.
First time I did that I was amazed how the color popped and literally transformed the look and color of the car.
Zaino or Rejex, both great products and I don't think there's a wrong choice, ... more of a personal preference.
Just my experience and info for what it's worth
If you are using the Z5 first and then the AIO, you are using them in the wrong order.

Zaino is great
I just bought the Zaino kit a couple of weeks ago for $85. Includes the accelerator, z2, z5, z6, car wash, pads, etc. I got caught in rain and the water beaded and flowed right off. Washed the car and it was very easy to wipe down and no water marks. I started off with z5-z5-z2. Then this weekend one more coat of z5.

Just asking,How can you tell how great a shine is or how nice the depth of shine is in a photo.The true test is two black Vettes side by side in the flesh.Been their done that.Use your imagination for the rest of the story.

I've have almost a full can of this in the garage since 2001.I used it on my new Mustang Cobra.Think I'll try it out on the Vette next to see how it compares.
