Recieved my Zaino kit today.
I ordered the kit, came with everything I will need. Question is, the Z-FX box consisted of 4 empty bottles i assume to mix the stuff in, and a tiny blue bottle filled with bluish liquid. The little bottle was about half way full and i swear to you it looks like it has 15 drops in it. Is this right?

"Is this right"? No! Yes, the bottle with the "blue" lid is the ZFX. I have some 29 coats of Zaino (Z5 and Z2) applied. Most with ZFX. I am still using my first vile of ZFX. When they say drops, they mean drops. Hold the ZFX bottle verticle and let 4 drops fall into mixing bottle. DO NOT SQUEEZE "ZFX" bottle. Also, the mixing bottle is 2 ounces. You will be able to do your "Z" with 1 ounce of less. In time, you will be able to do your "Z" by filling the mixing bottle too an imaginary 1/4 or 1/3 line! You might find yourself applying several coats of Z5, with Z6 between coat, before moving to the Z2. If you have questions asks. Also go to Zaino site and look at "Tip & Tricks". Plus Sal will any and all questions, just call!

You are welcome! You are going to like the results! That "clay bar" can get VERY slippery. You do not want to DROP! I didn't think of it, but saw someone post that they used laytex gloves to hold. I helped someone with his "Z" and we put down some old sheets and laid towels around the outside of the vehicle. Did not want clay bar to hit the cement!

That is one way to approach it. They are very small to work with. I unwrapped and mixed the two together. Then again, I ordered and extra bowl. It is still on the shelf waiting for that next clay bar treatment (started in August 03 - clay bar again in August 04). If you are worried about dropping use 1. Confident, put both together and form a larger piece.

I used 1/4 of a clay bar just to get some gum residue out of the hood. I can still barely see the trace of gum residue when light shines on it (looks like very light scratch). I'm gonna wash the car again this weekend and apply Z-5, Z-6 & Z-2.
