Question Z-6 application confussion

Hi guys! I recently ordered a bottle of Z-5 and Z-6. This is going to be the first time I wax my Z. I'm very clear on the Z-5 instructions. However I'm a bit confused on the instructions for the Z-6:

"Working with a cool and dry surface, Z-6 is sprayed directly onto the paint. Lightly spritz only the center of a 1 foot section on the car. A dime size in the middle of a one foot section is plenty. Buff immediately with the dry side of the towel. Turn your towel frequently and you'll notice that the surface becomes slicker and slicker. Repeat on next section until the entire car is finished."

it tells me to buff in small sections but should I buff back and forth or up and down motion just like it suggests to do on the Z-5?

Finally my last doubt is: How many coats of Z-5 am I suppossed to apply before the job is complete? also zaino website suggest to apply at coat of Z-6 in between coats of Z-5, is this correct? or am I not understanding this correctly?

thanks in advance fellas!

As long as you don't buff in circles you should be fine.

The job will NEVER be complete.

also zaino website suggest to apply at coat of Z-6 in between coats of Z-5, is this correct? or am I not understanding this correctly?

Yes, it is correct. Z-5 is a polish and Z-6 is more like a detailing spray, a "finisher".
