Post question

Does cherry wet wax hold up as well as Zaino?

I clayed mine, applied one coat of Cherry. I have washed and dried my truck 4-5 times since then and it still looks very good. No experience with Zaino, used to use Zymol. Cherry ease of use compared to Zymol is a huge bonus.

Depends on how much zaino you use. Try about 5 coats of zaino over the Cherry Wet Wax and see what you think. Best of both worlds perhaps.

hehe...sorry jwrape. Clay bars are used to remove contaminants sp? from your paint. Detailers have been using it for years but the general public has just been introduced to it in the last five years. Pick some up...you'll be very pleased. Oh yeah, do it before you wax.

jw: do a search on 'clay magic' or clay bar. it's the neatest thing--will 'pull' contaminants out of your Ls paint--used before waxing-cherry wet wax, of course.

btw, it was very easy to use--surprised me.
