Default Zaino on the headlights.

I did a quick search and found a couple references on this, but not a dedicated thread (at least past the first 4 pages). Call be a newb if its already been posted but I'll admit I'm fawkin lazy.


Has anyone that applied Zaino to headlight lenses seen any adverse effects over extended periods of use, or exposure to the sun?


Thanks for your time and feel free to flame me for no apparent reason.

Thanks, I needed that!

I also read that it blocks out UV. I'm wondering if this will help keep the enclosures a little cooler... hmm...

I've been doing my headlights and taillights for the last two years and haven't seen any problems. Zaino claims that it is safe for plastics, not sure about clear plastics though. It has no abrasives so it shouldn't haze the headlight covers.

It's fine for headlights, been doing it for the longest time now, haven't heard any complaints.

Works great on glass and plastics. I have noticed a little bit of residue from Z-6 on my glass, only when indirect sunlight hits it. I have had better results with Z-8 (less residue).
