I use Z2 after a few coats of Z5, does it look better? Hard to tell, it looks pretty darn good after the Z5 and Z6. It's really hard to quantify.

the science says that Z2 will shine more then 5

but most users apply as much 5 as proves to be effective, then start alternating 2 and 5.

i have black, and primarily use 5.

every 3-5 coat, ill toss on some 2

Do you ever go back to Z1, I have heard that some Zaino users do a layer of Z1 after 10 (or more) layers of Z2 and Z5.

Thanks

yup - I still use Z1

even though im shipping ZFX now, I havent had a chance to use it.

i do a Z1 spring and fall - and one mid summer if i have gotten near that 8-10 coats of Z2/Z5.

u need either Z1 or ZFX to let the top coats bond - it acts as a "glue" , for lack of a better word - to the top layers you put on . . .

once you have used ZFX, it is the same as having put down a coat of Z1, you dont need to use it every time - you can just slap on some 2 or 5 whenever you want -

So you still use the same Z2 with the Z FX? Or is it different polish?
