Some @#%wits were painting our building at work and there is a bit of paint on my car. It easily comes off my zainoed finish with just a tiny flick of the fingernail. I havn't got it all yet and was goint to go apply a couple coats today as the weather cleared here in Houston. My question is, can I gently claybar the spots away without damaging my existing coats of zaino?

TIA

 

Yes, claying will not damage the Zaino finish, you would have to clay and clay and clay to remove all the Zaino....

 

Heh, I'm not as insane as Dr. Bonz. I went ahead and clayed the spots with the paint. The water still beads up perfectly on the clayed areas. I wonder how some of these other waxes would stand up(NXT, Crystal Gaurd, Blackfire, Zymol)?

Fortunately the white paint on the silverstone finish was pretty easy to see. I ran my hand all over and feel no more flecks of the oversprayed paint, so now I am gonna hit with a layer of Z5 in case there are any tiny scratches produced, then a couple of layers of Z-2.

I have never really seen any of the other colors Zainoed up close, but I just love how the Silverstone looks like uniformly flecked granite, sparkling in the high noon sun. The paint may be sheet as far as chips, but damn the color is perfection.
