Just got all my Zaino products from Zainobros and a PC 7424 from autogeeks along with a variety of waffle pads. Best prices and fast shipping from both vendors. 
Can't wait to get started.

does anyone use a buffer with Zaino?
i have never used one. too afraid of swirls and removing all my hard work.
are you going to start with a healthy wash down with Dawn? i do to remove all the other wax and junk. then clay it and wash with Z7.
then i start my polishing using cotton cloth.
well good luck. i know you will be happy with the results.

It gets a nice even coat, but it also uses a lot more product than you need to. I believe Z5 is supposed to be put on up vertical panels and down horizontal panels - the buffer just, well, buffs.
Remember to apply zaino as thin as possible. It should use almost no zaino at all to do the entire car. Don't wipe it off until you can run your finger across it and not leave any residue.

I would strongly advise adding a polish to your arsenal.
I love ZPC, but it's a fairly mild polish.
Z2/Z5 are sealants not polishes, and application/removal is a piece of cake by hand.
The PC is meant to be used with a polish.
I will only use Z clay, and I will only clay if I am going to polish after.

I would add the Clear Sealant and the Z8 Grand Finale to your arsenal. It will bring it to another level
