Im curious what some of the greats like bonz and kevin have to say on the issue. I do apply it in the vertical lines like they reccomend, but it really would be faster and easier to just wipe it all over.

not that Im being lazy, just tell me to keep going in the vertical lines, and lines I shall do.

just makin sure Im not wasting my time. I mean I get perfectly vertical lines up and down, up and down. Im very **** about them, MUST BE STRAIGHT!!!

"Vertical" on the sides! "Front to Rear" on hood and top! With practice you will find it "faster and easier"!

No, no, no! It's side to side on the hood and top! That way, it flows perfectly with the vertical on the sides.

In fact, I often do one continuous line from the drivers side fender up and over the hood and down the other fender. This is the ONLY way you can apply Zaino!!!




I'm just messing with you! I really do it that way but to be honest with you, it probably doesn't make any difference!

There is NO auto care product that should be applied in a circular fashion. All makers of premium car care products recommend a linear motion. Why? Several reasons. It catches the reflections better, circular patterns enhance the appearance of swirl marks, and if you do happen to be rubbing imperfections into the paint, at least you won't cause swirls that will be visible from all angles.
