Groits all the way - I've spent the last 2 days on the undercarriage, engine, and windows. Now it is time to clay bar and wax - such fun!!!

Guys,

My wife's green 95 Camry gets the Zainos and my 98 4Runner gets the Meguiar's Gold Crap until it runs out. Soon as it does, the 4runner will get Zainos too.

I waxed my 4runner exactly 1 month ago. The Camry got a 3rd coat of Z5 (swirl remover) and polish (Z2?) about 5 months ago. I washed both the Camry and the 4runner yesterday. If water bead size is any indication of how well a protectant works, the Zainos BEATS MEGUIARS HANDS DOWN. I'm not kidding. Meguiars doesn't last for (blank).

I'm gonna have to learn how to use the Corey Cable w/ the Zainos, though it is very easy to apply anyways. It is just all that surface area that makes me cringe.

Bob

Zaino fan here...


My 02 Taco, gf's 03 corolla, and mom's 02 Avalon gets Zainotized every 3 months by me.

why zaino? easy to apply and lasts longer.

Its hardwork and the end result is rewarding and somewhat therapeutic for me.

i usually plan early on sat. morning for each vehicle.

dawn wash
claybar
wash
z2
and z5, z5, z5, z5, sip on some coronas; admire the shine and more z5....
