True.

And no, I'm not talking out of my ass. I used to detail for money.

Pictures really don't give Zaino the credit it deserves. The smoothness of the finish and the "wet" looking paint made me a beliver. Zaino...good stuff Nice pics BTW !

Pics do not do justice to anything.

Polymer sealants simply do not have depth. Participants of Concours 'de Elegance wouldn't take Zaino if it was free.

If you spent over one grand over different products (including Zaino) and eight hours a day detailing, you would know.

I do give props to Zaino for giving people the idea of "process" because that's really the foundation of detailing. Now with the knowledge of the steps required for detailing a car, the same result can be achieved with the most basic products costing half or less.

Of course if you want to step up in terms of polymer sealants, there are Black Fire and Klasse. Then if you're into perfection, then carnaubas such as S100 and Pinnacle Souvern are the only ways to go.

contrarian view:

zaino gives a deep clean look that lasts much longer than carnuba. that said, my personal preference (on my show car) is zaino with p21s (carnuba) over it- the best of both worlds, and (imo) an even deeper and richer result than either one alone...
