New Zaino Product

Well I didn't see any new posts about Zaino in a bit, maybe its because its the winter months and many people wont even think about getting the hose out to wash down the rig, but I live in southern GA and Zaino does have a new product out....Z-CS...Basically wash your car, apply this and let it dry... and then your car is protected against the elements and by that I mean it seems like its completely waxed, no buffing or anything needed after that... at 30 dollars its a bit pricey...and if it was any other brand I might be skeptical but Zaino is the greatest and as soon as I get the package.. I will test it out and post my thoughts

Thanks for the heads up! I have been meaning to order some more ZFX for a while, glad I waited.

edit: I hadn't seen the Zaino Z-AIO ALL-IN-ONE before either. From the description it seems like that might replace the clay bar step? That would be nice. I sent them an email, I'll post their reply here.

No....

Z-AIO and Clay Bar perform two different functions...

Clay will only remove surface contaminants.... like paint overspray,
rail dust, mineral deposits, etc.

Whatever, Clay doesn't remove, means it is in the paint not on the
paint. Like acid rain or other etched spots in the paint... Then you
would need to use a product like Z-AIO or Z-PC

Remember Z-18 clay is non-abrasive....

Hope this helps...

Have you tried the Z-CS yet? I like the new cleaner/polish, it acts like a claybar as far as I can tell, like a really really mild buffing compound.

The clear stuff is just wierd. I'm not sure I like it actually. It was nearly impossible for me to tell if it was going on or the applicator was dry. It doesn't seem to bead water like the rest of their product line. And after it dried ( i *think* it's dry) I don't see more shine or any improvement. I'll mess around with it some more, but I think it might be the first zaino product i'm not crazy about.
