Default Another Zaino Question

I noticed in the pics I've seen of cars with Zaino that there appears to be no orange peel in the paint. Does the Zaino level the surface of the paint?

No. It could be a result of using Z-5. Z-5 help to hide swirls. Maybe one of the side effects is to lessen the appearance of orange peel. I really doubt it though, I use Z-5 occasionally and mine shows the orange peel.

Depends on the light but Zanio doesn't do anything for orange peel. My car is as bright and shiney as a mirror but does have orange peel.

Orange peel is the appearance your paint job takes on when it is not totally level or smooth. It looks like the surface of an orange (dimpled like a golf ball).
