yea but i in all honesty refuse to pay 50+ bucks for all the stuff u need to zaino a car with. Plus i do not want to wait to get it.

Since Meguiars was around for such a long time means they are doing something right.... same goes for turtle wax (even tho some of their stuff isnt too great....but apparently they improved )

Bare in mind that was with one quick coat and no other products were used. For twenty minutes, I am happy. I will forward Kabs some pics of the blue truck, that one really turned out nice. Thanks for hosting them too!!!

yea but does it actually protect your car....does it last, etc


Also the thing in the spray bottle looks exactly the same as in the regular bottle... im not sure if i want to get that stuff until people fully test it out.

Also it doesnt say its a wax... it says its a liquid polish.... so hmmm

Yeah, the verbage on the bottle calls it a wax and a polish and different times. It seemed to act more like a fine liquid polish, but I dunno. After a few weeks I will update you guys.

Edit: their website calls it a synethetic polish, but then calls it a wax as well. Maybe I will give them a ring. However, I want to try layering it and see what kind of results I can really get with it.

HEY FELLAS

Good news is this stuff actually does work extremely well (I have a PPW). I've been an NXT fan for several years but decided to try this stuff. I agree w/ those of you who said it is just like water and couldn't last that long. But I wax my car enough to where it doesn't really matter.

Anyways...I applied 3 coats of this stuff this evening and with each coat the paint got smoother (and yes I did have some rough spots as I hadn't used my NXT in awhile. The shine is nice and its so easy to put on its ridiculous.

i was thinking about picking this up too. About 15bucks or so at Kragens, but when i picked up the bottle i was really confused cause it was like water inside. Doesn't seem like it would apply well, and it reminded me of that spray on stuff Ended up picking up a bottle of Zymol

Zaino actually doesn't cost that much, its like 25-30 bucks for a bottle of Z1 and Z2?

So is it a wax? Or is it just a polish?

It's a synthetic wax, it's not a polish only since it's like water, you can't feel any abrasives at all. When you first put it on, you can feel the spots you done and the spots you haven't as they will feel rougher. I put it on last week and washed the car this week, it beads up really well. It is super easy to put on, you just put on a very thin layer so you hardly use any and let it dry and just buff shiny with the microfiber towel, you can probably do 2-3 coats in the same time as a carnauba blend. The only thing is i don't know how long this stuff lasts as a protectant, but so far I like it.
