I Zaino my car about once a season, and I'm thinking of using Eagle One "Wax As-U-Dry" spray wax to keep the shine up at every wash.

Has anyone tried this product?

dont know that one, but i use a dry detailers spray that contains carnuba over zaino (also use z6 sometimes, but it does not contain carnuba)... i also use actual carnuba itsself over zaino sometimes.
others have said that zaino does not sandwich well (carnuba over zaino with zaino over that carnuba and so on). i have had pretty good experience with sandwiching.
btw, i zaino about 6 to 7 coats a year and probably 2 or 3 carnubas in between.
(and yes, my car does look like black glass driving down the street!)

is there a reason you dont want to use the zaino spray?

the sandwiching thing is a hit and miss problem..

many erport no problem, many do get smearing or hazing etc . .and then have trouble with layering more zaino . .

as a detail spray wont last long - it generally should not cause problems, cause it will likely be gone when the next layer comes along - but i do know of a local zaino-file that asked direct questions to someone at zaino and was told NOT to use wax based sprays . . .

take that with the grain of salt that was intended

I've been a fan of Eagle 1 "Wipe-and-Shine" for a couple of years.

I bought some of the new "Wax As-U-Dry" and can report that it is also very good for detailing. I use it mostly on a dry car, spray it on, dry with a soft cloth. It has some wax in it, but it leaves no waxy residue to clean up. Best of all it smells absolutely great, makes me want to use it.

My normal routine is to wash the car, then clay bar, then wax it. Between washings I use a California duster to remove the daily dust, then "Wax As-U-Dry" to remove the fall-out bumps and keep it shiny. Give it a try, $4 well spent.
