Not sure about the comments to go over Zaino with a coat of wax. I asked Sal Zaino that same question a year ago and got a long email back about why I should not do that. I don't remember what it said anymore though.

FW -

I've used 'em all, and I have switched to Zaino partially because it is so quick. Once you've done the prep, like any other wax, you can do a very quick re-apply any time. It takes me longer to wash my car than it does to put on another coat of Zaino. A quick application of Z2 or Z5, add the ZFX, and I'm done in 20 minutes (plus the wash time).

Detailing sprays like the Meguiar's product state on the back that after using no prep work is needed ( due to the use product ) before painting. Most that I've seen, you just spray on and then wipe, if there is wax in the spray it is a very small amount. I wouldn't worry about it, just wash the car before adding another coat of Zaino.
