This thread is a riot. Hey man, my Dad can beat-up your Dad anytime!

Zaino is a good product and I like it. Once the initial application is on - you are on easy street. The first application is a long process - clay-bar and all. Others like something different, what is the big deal? Let them Rejex away - might try that stuff myself, after about three or four years when my original order of Zaino runs out.

I am very happy with my Zaino results starting with the VY 06 and now the black 08. I'm sure that there are other fine products out there but that is no reason to trash Zaino, as obviously there are many happy customers. The results and ease of use are all subjective anyway. Use what makes you happy!

I have had a bottle of Z5 that I never used but maybe I will try it this week for the bottom coat or 2.

I'll never understand the animosity towards different wax/polishes and the people who use them. It's just so silly. Use whatever product you want, and recommend whatever you like using. We are all just trying to get our shine on.

the problem lies with the Zaino lemmings they have to cram their opinions down others throats. Then when they hear criticisms about their "Beloved" product they start name calling and hating ...

same as the Amsoil lemmings and haters

There are a lot of old people on this board, as old men tend to buy Corvettes. When people get to be a certain age their brain doesn't work as well, and they start believing that they know everything. Anyone who dares disagree with them is met with anger and contempt. They also get caught up in the 'team' mentality, where since they use a certain product, or buy a certain car brand, they feel like they are part of a 'team' and feel the need to 'root' for that brand or prove that its the best. You see it a lot in the C7 threads where they are saying how GM needs to step up and 'beat' the GTR or the 911 or whatever, instead of just enjoying what their car is and what it does. It spills over into the car care products as well.

From the article above. Looks like Zaino held up pretty well!

Test orignally started 10th Sept, with second group added 18th, week later. Reviews took place at 8th Oct and 1st Nov 2008.

After 4 months, the following sealants are still protecting the paintwork:

Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection
Chemical Guys: M-Seal, Jetseal 109, Speed Amor
Klasse AIO and Sealant Glaze
Hi Temp Paste
Zaino AIO, Z2 and Z5
Wolfgang Deep Gloss Sealant.

So there you have it, my final list of what lasted four months in very extreme conditions too.
