it will kill the clear coat. However, wash it before Zaino is a different story.

Zaino says its OK to use dish soap (diluted in water obviously) before applying their product.

I wouldn't use a buffer and grind it into the paint, but with lots of water I can't imagine it being too abrasive.

Again, it should only be used before applying Zaino (or wax), not for daily washing.

Zaino recommends Dawn dish soap to remove all other waxes and grease before applying the first step in thier process.
Don't use dish soap for each wash, as it will remove all of your wax or polish each time you wash it. Only use it when you want to "start over" with your wax/polish process.

This reminds me of the last time I Zaino'd. I put too much dish soap in the water and it took me nearly a half hour to rinse the soap off the car. Use less than a capfull for a full bucket.

Anyone have a silver roadster with the factory wing? I'd like to see some pics as I'm considering it.

Anybody have any experience with this spoiler?

Looks a bit wider than the stock replica (which I like).
Not sure if its quality though.
