First Ever Zaino Experience - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

firefighterEMT33 · 04-28-2010, 01:03 PM

Last night I completed my first ever Zaino treatment on any vehicle and

is all I have to say. This stuff is absolutely amazing. The shine is so deep it looks like a mirror. (See last picture.)
The process is VERY VERY EASY! Time consuming, but easy. From start to finish the whole process took about 6 hours, but it's totally worth it. The car picked up a little dust sitting in my garage over night, but a quick 1/2 mile drive around that block at 20 MPH took it all off.
The car has a 3M Clearbra on the front bumpers, rockers, gills, and behind the rear tire. The film took the polish pretty well.
If you would like to see some more pictures, or have any questions about the process, feel free to PM me. I am hooked on Zaino and will be using it from here on out on my Camaro and my girlfriends Hyundai.

Nice job, sure does look pretty.

Now try some blackfire and you will be even more amazed.

Thanks!

Does it leave a ton of residue on the wheels?

Actually for tires I would suggest Tuff Shine, it is kinda hard to find. It doesn't leave all that much residue. This stuff lasts the longest out of everything else I have tried. It doesn't sling anything on your car and will give you a matt to glossy finish based on how many coats you give it. Plus it doesn't turn your wheels brown after awhile like some do.

Blackfire is a sealant but adds a lot more slickness and durability compared to Zaino. However there is a Blackfire tire sealant that I don't recommend.

Beautiful Camaro!

Glad you like the results from using Zaino...

...it's a HUGE reason I've received so many detailing jobs.

You have a very nice looking Camaro. I love that color. I used Zaino Z-5 a couple years ago and altough the car looked really good if bird droppings gets on the paint it get it off quick. Here is a link to what I use now and love it.

WOW!

Stex · 04-28-2010, 08:50 PM

Looks great, what did you use Z-2 or Z-5 plus the accel...? I use Zanio and it is great. Use adams for the tires.

firefighterEMT33 · 04-29-2010, 02:07 PM

I used Z-5. The shop where I got my 3M clear bra installed recommended it because my car is a dark color. I used it along with the ZFX and applied the maximum 3 coats. I had a little bit left over and could've gotten another coat out of it. And that was only with about 1 ounce of Z-5 and 4 drops of ZFX.
