Question

Do you Zaino users use a buffer when putting these coats on. I thought mothers 3 step process was a pain in the A$$! I always here everyone talking about the process..... put on this coat, then this coat, as this is drying put on this coat, finish up with 2 more coats of this and so on...

Seems like alot of work for a wax, just my opinion
If you are hand waxing i hope your arms are ok tonight after applying 5 coats of this stuff!

It's really no problem. It doesn't take a lot of pressure to apply Zaino. It's actually easy and slick as glass if you use the clay bar first time.

Plus, the drying time allows for more beer consumption. After a few coats and beers, it's a pleasure.

It's not really "waxing" in the normal sense. And
since it is a labor of love, the buffer stays in the box.

Good Luck Guys!!! I did mine and haven't taken
any pictures since I got it lowered ... Soooooo ....



And .....

I slacked and only put on 2 coats of Z5 and did a shot with Z6. I took 2 pics and my battery died on the camera. DOH! Recharging now. I'll take some more later.

I don't have to drive the truck daily yet, so I'm gonna leave it in the garage all week and put on Z5 each night. That'll give me at least 7 coats by week end.

Layer by layer baby.

That will be sweet with that many layers!!!!!!! The only thing I don't like about Zaino is that it sheens water so good, when I wash it, the soap is about useless. LOL
