Default Liquid Glass ?

I saw beautiful vette at a car show with a great shine. I asked the owner if it was Zaino.He just chuckled and said he didn't have the time for it. He showed me the can of Liquid Glass and said it was the only way to go. My 01 is Speedway White and I am preparing for my first real detailing project. Does anyone have any feedback on just Liquid Glass? :seeya :steering: :confused: :auto: :party:

I used Liguid Glass years ago and was happy with it. After reading the forums it seems to be a little dated (look at the corvette on the can) . Sometimes I like a one step and have changed to Liquid Souveran. I think it is better for the paint also.

I have used Liquid Glass on my boat and my vehicles and loved it. goes on and comes off very easy and leaves a great shine. But,after reading all of the positive Zaino posts,I just bought some and should be trying it out this week. :cheers:

I use Liquid Glass, it looks great.

But I heard so much about Zaino that I may switch.

Don't know if its worth the time & money. I may stick with LG.

Undecided :confused:

I think the main objection to Liquid Glass was it's lack of durability and it is a '70s type polymer resin technology now vastly improved upon.

No LG does not leave any powdery dust when wiped off.

I don't know how much better Zaino is, my vette looks wet & shiney when I use LG.

I used Liquid Glass for years & was very happy with it.
After reading about Zaino here, I tried some & will never go back.
I had a white '94 roadster when I first switched and I noticed a difference between LG & Zaino. Whatever you do, prep the surface before you start.

In my experience YES! Be careful around any black trim you may have as it can become discolored. Great Shine though. I know alot of custom rodders who swear by it. I personally use Zaino, but to each his own. Any of these products Zaino, Gold Class, PS1, etc. are all good. If you car for your car at all, keeping clean and polished should be top priorty. :yesnod:

been using LG for years (still use it) it does leave a little dust i find the car looks best the first was after waxing to remove any residue. I also like forula 113 bead X detailing spray between waxes and to remove dust leaves a smooth feel and nice shine (has no durability though)
