Default Another Stinkin' Zaino Question.


Hey All,

I've been reading most of our archived Zaino threads and one thing keeps bugging me...

If Zaino is NOT a wax, but a sealer, does it still provide protection for the paint?

I'm just hoping to pick the best product for my car, considering my environment. My car is garage kept, yet during the daylight it sees the heat from Phoenix, as well as the pollutants that we've got here.

The question is "will Zaino provide complete protection or is it better for cooler climate, garage queen cars?"

Thanks for any assistance.

Look at it this way, Wax comes from the tree. Zaino comes from a lab. It's like synthetic motor oil vs Dino juice. It's a lot more durable and last longer. Zaino is NOT a sealer. It's a polish. What it means, is that the surface MUST be clean as a good base for the polish to shine. IMO, Zaino is better for warm weather because easier to dry, and just just tougher than anything I used in almost 20 years (BTW, I lived only in warm states).

Just a quick summary from this Zaino Zombie.

Good

- Protection
- Reflective properties
- Mirror shine that's liner (Is the line in the reflection straight?)

Bad

- Price
- Time commitment to do it right
- Condition and the quality of the paint surface determines success.

Note: Honda use watercolor to paint Civics, so don't compare Zaino results to a Jag, for example.
