Zaino'ing on a budget?

I want to use Zaino primarily for the few swirl marks I have. From my understanding, I could do the following:

1. Wash car with dawn to remove current wax and contaminants

2. Apply Z5 (however many coats necessary)

3. Follow with Z2

I can do this all for under $30? How long should this last me?

Thanks

If you just go with the Z2 ($12.95) and Z5 ($16.95) "Yes"! I would probably throw in Z6 ($9.95). Shipping: Flat Rate $7.95.
If you don't go crazy and follow "Tips & Tricks" and instructions, months! It looks like your total will be $47.80, a little over your $30. But, well worth it! Remember, use the Dawn only for initial wash. After that, consider Z7 or quality "Car Wash" solution.

If you are on a budget, I would just get the z-5 and not the z-2, the new Z-5 has all the gloss of z-2 in my eye and fills scratches and swirls much better than the Z-2 does. You will also need either the Z-1 activator (2 step) at 8.95 or the new ZFX one step activator 19.95 to activate the polish.

So basically:

Z-5 16.95
Z-1 8.95 or ZFX 19.95
Z-6 9.95
