Default Minimum temp for Zaino application.

This will be my 4th season using Zaino polish but I can't remember the recommended minimum temperature for application. I figure if it's sunny out 50's and I'm parked in the sun I should be O.K. Opinions?

Temp only affects the drying time/your patience. Use of zfx will help your 1st application move along quicker IMHO.

FYI: the new z2PRO has much better drying times.. than the old z2 and z5

i coated my car with z2 pro x 5 past weekend..

i splashed some one in the low 40's and it dried within 30mins..

wiped it off no problem with an MF towel..

sal says you can apply to 45 degrees...
the cooler the temp the longer the cure time-
and i avoid the sun on the car.
so 50 degrees is fine

wanabe - that's what i used to think with the old z2.

But with the new z2 PRO, it cures (ie finger swipe test) much faster .. no joke.. I cannot believe this stuff !! Kudos to Sal !

I live in Winter country predominantly where now at this time of year our day time highs or 37 to 39 F and z2 PRO just works amazingly fine..

I can't wait for the warmer temps, probably add another 30 coats at this rate
