Does this sound reasonable?
Just tried Zaino for the first time on my 98 black convertible. I had a pretty good coat of Carnuba wax on it, and here are my results:
Only took me 3 hours to:
Wash with Dawn
Dry
Clay Bar with Z-18 and Z-7
Wash car with Z-7
Dry
Apply 1 coat of Z-1
Apply first coat of Z-5
Does 3 hours seem about right for doing all of this? The clay bar went smoothly over the car, so I don't think I had too many contaminants.
Not bad for only 3 hours?

Sounds about right if the temp and humidity were right for Z5 drying (curing).
The good part is it will be easy until the next clay session.

I can wash, clay bar, rinse, dry, and put a coat of Zaino on the body and WHEELS in about 30 minutes.
Lots of practice.

Me, I'm the same. Cleaning my car is pure stress relief. I purposely go slow, relax & take my time.
And when I'm done, my troubles are all forgotten & I'm :) again.
