To me, Zaino is easier and faster to use than anything else I've used in over 30 years. My son can do an entire application, drying, removal and Z6'ing in about 45 minutes. Since it is so durable it makes keeping the car clean very easy. You don't have to build up alot of coats, just a couple to make sure you have good coverage is all you need. Then add more layers just when you feel like it or to deepen the shine and improve the protection since it stacks.

~One mans opinion / observations~
Zanio was voted the number one synthetic polymer sealant by an independent testing body
(Guru Reports) its application process has a small learning curve, but once mastered the results are well worthwhile. This is the product I use for the preparation of concourse vehicles (or any vehicle that requires a ‘show car’ shine
Zanio is a synthetic polymer wax ( although its called a polish it contains no abrasives) a compromise between a polymer sealant and a natural wax. The polymers do not require a lengthy cross-link (cure) time as ZFX is formulated to accelerate the time requirements. Z-2 produces the most gloss of the two synthetic waxes (although they’re labelled as polishes) it is more optically clear then Z-5 and will highlight any surface imperfections, whereas Z-5 will ‘hide’ very minor surface imperfections with fillers. Z-3 is a ‘polish’ for single stage (non-clear coated) paint.
For the ultimate in show car appearance and total protection, here are the Zaino products that you'll need to make it happen. Included in the Zaino Show Car Kit are everything pictured including the following:
ZFX™ Flash Cure Accelerator Additive
Z-2™ Show Car Polish for Clear Coated Car Finishes
Z-5™ Show Car Polish for Swirl Marks and Fine Scratches
Z-6™ Ultra Clean Gloss Enhancer Spray
Z-7™ Show Car Wash
Z-18™ ClayBar
Code: ZKIT-1
Price:$84.70US
Shipping Weight: 5.40 pounds
~Hope this helps~
