Where do you get this stuff? I cant find it at the Autozone, etc.

Also, can I apply Zaino over a coat of Meguires caranuba that I already have on the car?

http://www.zainostore.com. For best results you should wash your car with Dawn dishwashing soap to remove the wax then apply the Zaino. See their web site for specific processes, tips & tricks. The stuff is awesome!

Okay...I will get the ZFX and Z2. Is a normal carwash soap allright or do I NEED the Zaino brand carwash soap? Thanks for the help Bixby...I cant wait to get started on building up my coats!

I currently use Turtle Wax car wash only because I have an abundance of it & haven't had any issues although I do plan to switch to Zaino wash once I run out. Just be sure the 1st time you wash before applying Zaino that you wash with Dawn. It will remove all wax from your finish. Also, you may want to consider the Clay Bar as your 1st step just to make sure you have a nice clean surface for all those coats of Zaino. The initial process can be time consuming but after that its a pretty easy process. I also recommend the Z5 for swirl marks & scratches and the Z6 spray. And no I do not work for Zaino.

Dammit Duck! Every time I see a pic of your Z it makes me want to go out and wash mine! You have one AWESOME looking Brick my friend.

Bixby, you are fast approaching the level of Junior Zaino Jedi. Your advice to this young Zaino newb was dead on! Well done!

I use "Wet & Black" on the tires & the OEM Bra. Not sure what Doc or Duck use.

Wow! I wish I had time to apply more coats. DrBonz has got to be close to 50 by now. At your rate of application -vs- DrBonz's you should catch him sometime during the year of 2007..... As long as he doesn't increase his rate of application. REMEMBER. DrBonz IS the Zaino Jedi Master!!

Here's another pic of my Brick.........Man I love this car. I'm also practicing pic posting. I seem to have difficulty maintaining quality when I reduce them for posting.

Bonz, PLEASE stop telling mcduck things like that about his car. I don't have many Z people around here to hang-out with and he already has "Brick" on the the brain.

I am too lazy to search ATM. Can I please get a list of Zaino I need to completely detail and keep up on it. It will be on a superblack if that makes any difference. I want a complete product list to order. Thank you!

The kit's all you need to get started. There are two claybars in the container.
