Wink Can I PAY somebody to Zaino my car??

Just got home last night from the dealer with a new Touring/M6, RED, very RED...

Started reading here some time ago, but now that the car is home, is time to get serious. Unfortunately, not all of us are crazy enough to spend 18 hours waxing our car, so please don't be upset about the question above.

Does anybody knows if there is a place in south Florida (Miami or close) that will Zaino your car for you, at least the initial treatment?

Some comments. I won't be showing the car. I enjoy driving it, not so much cleaning it. Also, I am more interested in protecting it than the ultimate "pick off each grain of sand with a toothpick" detail.

My guess is the detail guy at a local full service car wash or detail shop would be happy to Zaino for you.

You don't have to do have to spend all day on it. The first prep and 2 coats should take less than 2 hours. It goes on easy and comes off easy. With the weather we have been having, get the ZFX too and you won't have to wait between coats. Then do one or more coats when you feel like it or have more time. There is a distributer in Miami if you don't want to wait for the shipping.

I'll guarentee you you'll be able to find a Zaino user that would help you get started. Your local Zaino distributor could probably find someone near you that would help. I've helped ALOT of people get started with Zaino.

use the zfx and you can do it yourself in a much much shorter period of time.

however, the very first time you wash your car, it will be an all day affair ... clay bar/ takes ALOT of time.

after that id just wash your car normally and apply a coat or 2 of zaino every other week or so, this should take about 2-3 hours.

I am getting in touch with Ed, the local distributor mentioned above. I figure he might hook me up with local Zaino fans and we might have Zaino parties...

At least I won't suffer alone, and the guidance will be appreciated.

Well my first post here. I am Ed from the above post. I am always willing to help someone to learn how to Zaino (it an't really as hard as many make it out to be) e-mail is at the bottom, from what I have read over here there are plenty of posters that have extensive knowledge of the products. And are better spellers. See you later.
