Z6 and Meguiars

Well guys since RockPick has convinced me to try NXT and give up my Zaino I have a question....

Is Meg's Mirror Glaze Final Inspection the same as Zaino Z6 or Z8?

If not what is out there that is comparable?

Well, in the case of the Z6 and FI... they are "similar" products, in that both are QD's. However, the Z6 has a tiny bit of "Z" (polymer) in it. The FI is a body shop safe QD (no silicones of any type) in it, and has a bit more cleaning action than Z6. Z6 will add a bit more "POP".

Z8 is more of a spray sealant. I would advise againt using it like a QD... to remove dust. Still, It can be used as kind of a QD on a clean surface, and it adds some protection.

NOTE: I have heard that the Z8 pretty much washes off any other coatings other than Zaino. Not sure if this is valid, but it's something to check if you use it.

If I were going to use NXT, I would pass on the Zaino products for maintenance. A couple of better choices would be Poorboy's Spray & Gloss, 4 Star Ultimate Gloss Enhancer, Meguiar's Last Touch and a couple others.

Just my two cents.
