Re: Zaino comes in today

I think you're too anxious to see the end product. Why don't you give it more time to dry. The instructions tells you to let it dry completely. Let it dry at least an hour.The longer you wait, the better the results. Follow the instructions. There should be no hurry to take it off.

Re: Zaino comes in today

So, you were able to get all the smudges out? How about a couple of pictures when you finish?

Zaino should be applied in EXTREMLY micro thin coats. You should be able to go around the car twice with approx. 1 ounce of product.

If you use the ZFX accelerator I would wait 45 minutes before buffing off, if you did not use the accelerator I would wait 1.5 to 2 hours before buffing off. Smearing is an indication of product not fully cured, and / or to much product applied.

Re: Zaino comes in today

ok i finished 2 coats of z5 now i just put a coat of z2 on .. waiting for it to dry. i must say after i got that second coat of z5 off i was very very pleased. waiting 20 minutes does me just fine and thats what the website says. now that i know what im doing its alot easier. when im all done i will take pics.. it will get dark by the time im done so ill have to take them tommorow. yea the smudges did come out macdad. When im all done for those of you that have never detailed a car before like myself ill run a review of what i did. And trust me you know more about cars then me so dont think you cant do it. Im 16 this is my first car polish, first car in fact, so if i can do it you can. Ill give a review so all the people that have never done this before like me don't do what i did last night.
