Default The most basic Zaino question... ever

Do I need to keep the Vette in a garage, if I decide to use Zaino?

There is a fair amount of dust here, usually occurs over night. I want to get zaino, but not having a garage is stoppin me....

Any insight on this?

Get a California Duster. After applying Zaino, the dust will lift right off.

I keep mine outside 90% of the time and I use Zaino. No problems. I also don't use a Duster, always leaves something behind.

(btw, moving this to car care)

damnit!!! I knew this would get moved :p:

My problem is, applying the zaino. Starting from scratch, is it ok, to apply any part of the whole zaino series, while not being able to keep the dust off the car, over night????

I use Zaino most of the time and my car sits outside 24/7/365. No problems at all. Dust is not as noticeable on white though. :)

Gene when Emerald was outside I always kept her covered. We have pear trees and the pollen gets all over everything. :rolleyes: A quick dusting removed most of it, but whatever was left usually came off with a good spritz of Z6.

Not having a garage increases the amount of maintenance effort required to keep the car looking good, regardless of what you use on it. Personally, I like Zaino, and recommend it. In your situation, its biggest asset is its durability.

I have to agree on using the California Car Duster, works great. I use it all the time and follow it up with Z-6.

I do use the Cali Duster. I love that thing. Currently, I have Zymol, both the wax and detailer, and its looking pretty good. Once I'm done with it, I'm going to make it look even better, and get into the zaino since doing it outside apparently isnt an issue :)

Out of curiosity, which zaino products will I need? Ruby Red is the paint color, and there is a blemish on my hood (prior owner's mechanic dropped the hood while a tool was still on the engine :mad )
