My Zaino kit arrived this morning so guess what I'm doing tomorrow?

However, both the Z2 and Z5 bottles refer to a 30 min waiting time before polishing off. Do I still need to wait the 30 mins if I'm using the ZFX accelerant? If not, how long?

I waited for 30mins with mine.

Ive found with the ZFX you can start polishing it off almost as soon as youve worked your way round the car

Although as you say the bottles say let it cure for 30 mins

 

By the time I'd washed, dried, claybarred, washed, dried and applied the first coat of Z5 I was ready for a 30 min sit down and a cup of tea anyway

 

Easier to polish off if you wait a bit longer so it's really really set

 

I usually wait

 

longer in colder weather too

 

Thanks guys ....

The blurb says a little goes a long way, so do I also take it that it is better to apply more thin coats than be greedy and splodge it on?

How much (of the wee mixing bottle) should I make up for my first coat?

(Hesitate to say this but I'm getting quite excited at the prospect of a swirl free shiny car. Hope that a) I'm not disappointed and b) that the weather is dry ...

 

Yes

half a wee bottle can do 2 coats, 3 if you push it IME

 

Blimey ... a little does go a long way. Useful to know though so I can pace myself !!
