It's the good stuff that show car guys use. Sort of a pain-in-the-*** if you are short on time. It can get expensive if you follow their instructions to a T, and when you add it all up. But I do think it's worth it, even thou I "cut corners" to save time and money. They go into details as to what kind of towels to use. Personally, I don't think it matters.
Just want to see who else here use it, so we can trade stories and tips.

They recommend you use Dawn dishwashing liquid to strip the old wax. The reason for Dawn is that Dawn is more alkaline, then the rest, so it strips better. But Dawn does not (not really) strip Zaino because it's not a wax.
Well, we don't have Dawn at home, so I just use what we have (Joy). But I did use a liquid pre-cleaner too, to remove any crap that may be on the suface before I started.
Zaino does not have any cleaners, so it does not clean the paint. Instead it will add layers and layers for a deep coat. So the surface need to be clean before you start.

Any dish washing soap will remove wax and oils. Yet there are oils in your paint. Removale of oils in your paint will rapidly lessen the look and last of your paint. If you do use dish washing soap to wash your car, then use polish glaze, i.e. Meguair's #7. Let sit for 30 minutes, then buff off, your car will look great, and oils will be back in your paint.

Re: Zaino vs. Finish First
I use Finish First instead of Zaino. Zaino is a lot of PR at a high price. Finish First to me is awesome.
I do not work for Finish First but here are two websites that explains their product in detail.

I have heard Zaino is good on some applications but I wouldn't swear by it. THere are other brands that are better like Pinnacle, Girots, Blitz that are just as effective and some even better.

Re: Zaino vs. Finish First (MouhadIb)
I acually just ordered some, it comes highly recommended by many people I have talked to. I have used many professional grade polishes; Finish Kare, Car Bright, Auto Magic, ext during my years detailing. I think that any product can and will work good on the right finish, I dont beleive all the hype behind Zaino products but I am going to try it before I say a thing about it.
