Zaino question
Can you buy Zaino in retail stores or only order it? Also, what product of theirs do you recommend for removing swirl marks? I think the previous owner of my car dried it with steel wool or something... 
Thanks
Thanks

As far as I know you can order it from Zaino, or I know Ecklers carries Zaino as well. Ecklers is a Corvette speciality catalog. Their Fusion is a descent product for removing swirls. I use Zaino on mine and I love the results.

You have to order of line from their website. You will not be sorry to have purchase this product. The customer service is awesome as well. Best product going.

yes - definitely order from http://www.zainostore.com Just order the full kit ( the less expensive one) and add a bottle of Z8 - you'll definitly want to use that.
Try Zaino-PC fusion for your swirlmarks, with a porter-cable 7424 and an orange light cutting pad. If you really have severe swirls, or more severe scratches that won't come out with that regimen, then try any one of a few other ideas
just some other ideas for you.
And of course after you clay and polish to the best surface you can get, put 3 coats of Z5 on. The z5 will help to hide scratches, but has only a very mild effect. Not the real "filler" effect that a carnauba wax would.
Zaino is a great choice -- good luck !

- move up to a wool buffing pad - for experienced users - be careful
- move up to a true rotary buffer like a makita
- try Menzerna Intensive polish or 3M #39002
just some other ideas for you.

If you have a Porter Cable I would use Zaino Fusion (ZPC) with a white foam polishing pad and your speed set at 4.5 to 5.5. If that does not remove your swirls I would then step up to an orange pad and Fusion or a Rotary. You can also do it by hand but it will be a little more work. Order your Zaino from www.zainostore.com or Ecklers.
