Default Quick ZAINO Question:

Would it be OK to apply a coat of Z5 and leave it on there for an extended period of time (like over night)? I know it's a PIA to remove if it hasn't sat long enough, but is there a too long? TIA :cheers:

I don't think so, I've done it before, and it was still very easy to remove.

For what it is worth, I let Z-5 sit on a car for a week, and it was just as easy to take as if it was on for a few hours.
Put it on Sunday night and did not get a chance to take it off until the following Saturday.

Yup, came off so easily! Man, this stuff is good! Try leaving Mguires on there for an hour and you need some 200 grit to get it off! :lol:

Got my second coat on it this morning, and boy, what a shine!! Now to go do some :steering: :seeya

:iagree: I left Z5 on the wheels for a week this summer b/c I got too busy - no problems.

I've heard of a guy who stores his car for the winter, leaving a coat of Z-5 not buffed off. He says its still just as easy to remove when he takes it out of storage.
