So I Z-AIO and Z-CS the car(red '07 ZO6), extremely happy with the results, now what ? I mean how do you maintain the shine, can I Z2pro x 1 and Z6 after a while (couple of months), or Z-CS after a wash ? Thanks

I would have finished off with Z8. Z8 really makes the CS pop and look even wetter and deeper. You can maintain with Z8 (light maintenance) or even better maintain with either Z2p or CS. That is the glory of Zaino, there really is no wrong way and all of his products are compatable. Do whatever you have time for or feel like doing on that particular day.

Well, I'm doing better with my CS. Put three coats on the C6 today - and I most definitely noticed a layering effect. 1 coat is not enough - really popped my eyes out after 3 coats. Sorry had no time for pictures as the wife was getting a bit antsy to go to dinner. Next time I'll take some pics.

agentf1- on your advice I may try to apply some Z8 on top.
So far the clearseal looks about as good as I usually get with a Z8 topper.

I'm getting pretty excited about this stuff

So does it really make a difference with the new CS and All in one to eliminate some other steps like the Z-2 and Z-5 applications?
If not any preferred sequence in using all of the Zaino products from Z-2, Z-6, Z-5, AIO, CS then Z-8?

As you may have guessed, you have options since all of the products are compatible.

I just applied a Z-2 Pro and a Z-CS to both of my cars yesterday.

I'll probably go with a Z-5 Pro and a Z-CS later this summer before another car show.

Z-8 should defintely be kept in your arsenol of products. You don't need to Z-CS after every wash. A minimum of Z-6 should be used.

You should try a few combinations to see what works best for your taste.

I have only used Z8 over the years after a very good cleaning. Z6 for routine stuff. Z8 is definitely the way to go after CS.
For you guys with multiple coats of CS, are you layering the same day, meaning an hour or so after each coat? Or are you talking about another coat of CS after a wash?

I did the initial ZAIO,Z2 and ZCS.
Now after I wash the vehicles I throw a coat of ZCS on,sometimes two coats.
5 minute wipe on and walk away for extra protection and shine.
A little Z6 and Z8 in between washings.
Works for me.

Using Zaino is no different than using another manufactures line of car care products.

First you need to understand what each product was designed for and the correct order you should use it in.

For example, why would you want to use Z-AIO over Z2 ? Z-AIO would remove the Z2 because it has mild abrasives in it.

If your car has minor scratches or swirls, CS isn't going to hide them but Z5pro will.

Would you use a sledge hammer to put a screw into a piece of wood ?
Do you see where I'm going with this ? The right product for the right job.

I would use AIO if I didn't claybar or if I did claybar and wanted to make sure I got everything then use the AIO. But that's starting from the bottom all over again ground 0. Probably something like Z-5 then CS, or Z-2 then CS.

Right on target, the Z8 makes all the difference. I didn't think the CS was working or hadn't done much until I used Z8, WOW the shine and surface Popped!

At $20.00+ the Z-8 better do something good for that price.

If you use Z8 2 times a month, my guess is it will last over a year. As with all zaino products a little is all you need. Z8 always gives me an improvement over CS or Z2/5pro.

So after applying the CS you finish it off with Z-8 which is the last application?

gmblack3

Z8 always after CS.

Right after the haze of CS dries.

That was about 15 mins for me today. 70s and low humidity.

If I where to apply Z2 to my car today with out ZFX, how long should I wait before applying CS?

RAGOVET

Zaino AIO and Z-CS and then what ?

DRIVE IT LIKE YOU STOLE IT !!!

So if you just ZAIO and use ZCS without the Z-2 do you notice any difference?
