Default Zaino FTW! (BIG PICS)

I ordered the zaino total protection kit last week, got it in the mail a couple of days later and used it today. I'm a total newbie at this and I never even had success washing my car before (always get water spots right after I wash). But this was awesome to use and the results are amazing. Take a look:






That last one is off of my door!!! Thanks again to DavesZ#3 for recommending this and also posting the Dr. Bonz instructions

EDIT: Pics were way too big so I put smaller ones.

For such a large picture, the resolution of your camera is rather poor, looks good nonetheless...Zaino is great

Very nice looking. Now that you've got some protection on it, you'll find it even easier to wash and dry as the water will bead easily and run right off.

after you do the whole process. Next time you wash do you just use the zaino carwash or.... or do you have to do the whole process again?

thanks

You just use the zaino car wash. I believe you only need to do the process 2 or 3 times a year. It's been a while since I did this but every time I wash my car it looks just like the time I zainoed it.
