Zaino Show Car Polish Releases Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal
Howell, NJ (April 5, 2005): Zaino Show Car Polish ("Zaino") announced the release of a revolutionary new detail spray identified as "Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal." Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal represents the epitome of Zaino's industry-leading polymeric technology, and promises to raise the bar for all detail sprays.

"Traditional detail sprays utilize ancient technology," said Sal Zaino, president and founder of Zaino Show Car Polish. "Grand Finale is completely new and unlike anything you've ever seen. Think of it as Z-6 [a quick detail spray from Zaino] on steroids."

Boasting more than twenty-five new technologically advanced ingredients including specialized polymeric protectants and robust optical enhancers, Grand Finale excels where other detail sprays fall short.

Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal was designed to work in conjunction with existing Zaino Show Car Polishes, such as Z-2 PRO, Z-3 and Z-5. Beta testers have reported weeks of increased shine and improved durability from a single application of Zaino Grand Finale, but Sal Zaino warns that Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal isn't for everyone.

"It's an amazing product, but it's not going to be for everyone. We specifically designed this product for the most discriminating detailer - the pickiest of the picky," he said. "Ideally, Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal will be used before an important car show, when the user requires additional shine, depth and gloss. Or, it might be used prior to a road-trip, as Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal offers incredible durability and slickness."

Zaino suggests that Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal only be used for special occasions, and that for normal day-to-day detailing duties users continue to utilize Zaino Z-6 Ultra Clean Gloss Enhancer Spray. According to Sal Zaino, the Z-8 Grand Finale has far too many specialized polymers to justify it for daily use. The polymers provide enhanced optical qualities, along with additional durability and slickness. Z-8 Grand Finale does not replace Z-6 Clean Gloss Enhancer Spray, Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal takes detailing to the next level.

The increased durability and slickness offer additional protection against such items as: bugs and bug stains, environmental fallout, harsh winter elements, UV damage from sunlight, and more. Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal also includes a unique dust repellant to help keep vehicles cleaner, for longer periods of time.

Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal is incredibly easy to use. The user simply sprays a small amount of product on a cool, dry surface, then buffs the surface to a streak-free, super slick, and extremely glossy finish. And thanks to Zaino's revolutionary polymeric protection system, Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal will "lock in" that show car shine for weeks.

In direct, head-to-head competition between Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal and four other quick detail sprays, Zaino easily came out on top in categories for: gloss, shine, depth, reflectivity, clarity, and durability. "We didn't design it to be like other quick detail sprays," said Sal Zaino. "We designed it to be the best, and we're confident that it is."

Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal is available now at Zaino's online store (www.zainostore.com), by telephone at 888-999-9870, or through authorized Zaino distributors. Technical questions or media inquiries should be directed to: 732-833-8800.

Thank you,

I was right about to PM Dr. Bonz and ask about this. I just got their email today (right after I put two coats of Zaino)

 

I just ordered some today. If you want some preliminary reviews, do a search on autopia.org for Z8.

Sounds like a great product.

Z2 Pro and Z8 will make a surface slick, shiny and deeper than before.

 

I got to test it out and you'll love it. I think Sal even improved it a couple of times since I tested it out, getting it ready for release.

 

I have been using/testing it for about a year, it is a great product, kind of a combination of Z-6 and Z-2. Also, its just plain FUN to use, for the existing Zaino user, you will love it..........

 

They sent me the damn e-mail about it's release about 10 minutes after I got an e-mail from UPS that my order had shipped! Why couldn't they release it a day earlier!? LOL
Now I have to pay the $9 flat rate for shipping again to get this!
Ahhhhhh!!!! So frustrating yet worth it I guess.

 

Hmm, so Sal raised shipping an extra dollar. Sneaky guy!

Best bet though is to buy for whole year, heck I bought 2 years worth of supplies.

 

I like the excitement of waiting for it! It's like christmas! LOL
That and I always get like, a decal or shirt with every order. I always find another place to use a Zaino decal. So far I have on on the car, one on my fridge, one on my projector screen, one on my door, one on the cabinet full of Zaino, and one on my planning book. The next one will probably go on inside of the hood so when it's open it's facing out. As you can tell I like Zaino decals. LOL

 

I know how you feel, I sent in an order Sunday night. If I would have waited two days and known about it, I would have ordered some to try out.

BTW, my order arrived today - thanks to Kevin O.

 

Sal had sent me a sample bottle about 3-4 months ago and asked me to review it for him. He said to keep it hush hush until he officially released it.

I LOVE it. It gives an even wetter looking shine then the Z-6. I now use the Z-6 on my windows and wheels and do the Z-8 on the paint. The car REALLY shines like crazy.

I have ordered my first REAL bottle yesterday.

 

Hey doc, do you have any new pics of your car with the Z-8 applied?

 

Man I like their products, but the PR BS is OTT!

 

huh?

 

Sh*t!! I just bought like 4 bottles of Z-6!

 

"translation: the public relations bullsh*t is over the top!"

I ordered a bottle a few days ago, I am waiting for it to arrive to try it out.

 

Public relations BS? Other than the write up on the Zaino site, there ARE no public relations. Zaino doesn't even advertize. His ads are basically what WE, his customers write.

I will have some pics up soon. Raining today.

 

Trying calling or e-mailing the owner of another car care product line company. Sal answers his own e-mail and likes the one-on-one phone calls from customers. His service is excellent, always has been. Like Bonz said there is no PR or advertizing, except for the users of Zaino.

 

I second that sentiment. Zaino gets by on word-of-mouth PR only. When you do call them, it's usually Sal that answers the phone. Where else will you find that kind of service? I've even emailed him on a Sunday and got a reply later that day.

 

Hmm interesting. I may try it out, but I need more stuff to buy to justify the high shipping on just 1 item.

 

Sorry I was seeing how many acronyms I could get into one sentence...

PR=Public Relations
BS=Bull $hit
OTT= Over The Top
