Zaino's New Z-8 is pretty bad a**!
Zaino's New Z-8 is pretty bad a**!
I was hesitant to get this stuff because it would be $20 + like $8 or $9 to ship it. But I was in need of another aplicator pad and some Z-7 so I figured what the hell. Let me just say, this stuff is WELL worth the $20. I couldn't believe the difference. I am **** about my car and I wax it often and clean it daily and the difference on a panel done and panel not was insane. It makes the paint feel VERY smooth and I can't even describe what it looks like. The paint looks really wet and reflective.
Also, whenever I would finish cleaning my car and I would go for a drive, I would get a slight brownish orange hue on the side skirts and mainly rear bumper of the car from just dust that you pic up from the street. I drove my car through some nasty streets of pittsburgh and NOTHING STUCK. I was stunned. I got out of my car with a df towel ready to get the dust off for the pictures and there wasn't a single spot. I was shocked! I will definately always have a bottle of this stuff on hand. It's going to take everything I have not to put this on after every wash...I can't afford to go through it that fast lol.
I snapped a few pictures around pittsburgh because I was bored and thought I would post them up.

Me, Too!!
Dawg & Kevin - I'm in total agreement that Sal's outdone himself with the new Z-8!! 
I thought that Z-6 was awesome ( & it will remain my everyday detailer ) but the difference in gloss w/Z-8 just blows it away! 
I just finished claying & polishing my black G ( I use Griot's polish & the PC buffer ) & after 3 coats each of ZFX-enabled Z-5 & Z-2 ( spread over 2 days, as per Zaino's recommendations ) I decided to try the Z-8. Words cannot describe my amazement at the "wet" appearance of the paint!
Z-6 has always left me quite pleased with the gloss but it never really had that "wet' look. Now the paint has a depth it never showed before. 
Chalk up another one for Sal!! 
Kevin - Any chance of a group buy on Zaino products?

Looks badass, I got to pick me some up! Nice shots of da Burgh. I'm putting one as my background on my comp. Spent 4 years there at DUQ. Hopefully you got to hit up the Southside and some Mario's action. Looks like you were on Mt.Washington and around the Northside, where the stadiums are.....

Awesome pics foochdawg!
I'm originally from the Burgh (live in Atlanta now) so it was nice to see the pics on top of Mt. Washington & in front of PNC Park!
Looks like I'm gonna have to pick up some Zaino products now that the pollen down here has settled down.

well...actually you still can't park in a fire lane...but I know what you're saying. LOL
Thanks for the compliments guys and it will be about 1" lower next weekend. 
Eibach springs and hotchkis sways. Can't wait, have heard nothing but good stuff. And about the Z-8 I am trying to find excuses to use the stuff. I went to a car show to check it out for may 30 mins and parked in the back because I wasn't competing...but had to put Z-8 on.
