Default Zaino Z-2 and Oribital

I asked in another thread but it was kinda of a long post.

Can you use Z-2 with a random oribiter? Reason being is I keep getting hazy marks up and down when applying by hand? And I apply very thin coats.

u should be getting hazy marks

make sure the bottle isnt more than 2 years old

its easier on the paint to apply by hand, so if ur getting marks by hand ull definitely get them with a buffer

but to answer ur question, yes u can use an orbital, but u will use ALOT more product

What do you mean I should be getting hazy marks?

My bottles are about a year old, so I need to hurry up and use them. So they only have a 2 year shelf life?

Yeah, I don't mind using more product, I still have 2 full bottles of Z-2 left.

there really is no reason to put on with an orbital unless its easier for you or takes you less time. The final product wont be better or worse. You will use a whole lot more zaino if you use an orbital.

I decided not to use the oribital and do it by hand. I applied Z-2 with ZFX about 1hr 30 minutes ago. Its is my garage and very cool inside, however outside is 75-80 outside.

I will let it sit another hour or so and hopefully it will buff right out.
