Default Zaino

I've never used it and I always read on here about people using and praising it. Where do I find this stuff?

I believe there's a thread at the top of the forum which is "stickied." It has this information.

There are a lot of good brands out there in the car care world. Zaino is good, but there are others out there which are just as good. It really depends on what you're looking for.

mikeyc was talking about this thread:

https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=76007

part way down is the where to buy part...

you can also go directly to zaino at:

as mikeyc alluded to, zaino is an enthusiasts product (for perfectionists looking for the perfect shine and willing to spend the time to get it)... as he mentioned, there are easier ways to get a great shine too.

Also, I was alluding to the fact that each product imparts it's own unique shine. Sealants impart a totally different shine from waxes and there is even variation in shine among the same brand of products.

I'm a Zaino newbie myself with only 3 applications and coats on the car. It's a great product, and as mentioned above has a very specific type of shine which looks a bit different than "traditional" waxes/polishes, but it's very long-lasting and from experience, looks very good on silverstone/silver cars.

The initial application process takes a good while, but once you have done the first run, it gets easier and less time-consuming. It's also pricy to get all the components for the Zaino system, but it's probably quite worth it over the long run. A little bit of product goes a long way. I've been amazed how it's been about a month since my last car wash and zaino application and only now do I feel like I need to do another wash. Seems to do a good job of keeping the car looking good for a while - or maybe I'm just lazy
