I'm sorry but all the Zaino pics I see don't even come close to how nice my car looks with adams. Even just washing with their soap and using super VRT will make my car look similar in some places and much better in others.

Pics don't even do it justice. You have to see it in person. The shine is mile deep. You need to wear sunglasses!

I hope so. If any Zaino user would love to show off his ride to me, I would be more than happy to see how it compares.

Honey, any time you are in Nebraska you are welcome to come on over and we can compare. There really is no need to get snippy about this one way or the other. People like what they like! If it works for you and you like it, more power to ya! Geez, relax!

Just wanted to give a good bump... Too bad the drama kings are lurking.

I've got every single Zaino product except for the glass polish, plastic polish and pro fusion. I can personally vouch for each product as being AMAZING. I love the way Zaino makes my paint look. Their leather conditioner is top-notch too. Huge thumbs up for Zaino prodcuts.

Strips all the old wax off the car, prepping it for polish application.

Zaino's glass cleaner works pretty darn well. Plastic polish is good, but I can't see it being any better than a similar something you get at Advance.

Adam's or Zaino, it doesn't matter, if it's prepped right, they both give great shine. I like Zaino due to once you do it the first time, it's not often you do it again and it's SO easy. And it LASTS a tremendous amount of time.

I think you hit the nail on the head, friend. Zaino's durability is simply amazing. The polishes layer beautifully and they last a long, long time.

FAR from being snippy. I'll always choose something that is easy, does a good job and good on the pocket. For Zaino I may save some money compared to Adam's but the last cars I've seen it on a few trucks, 72 442 and a few 5th gens it was nothing I haven't seen meguiers or mothers do for cheaper.

I use them both, and Megs and Mother's, and Sonax and...... beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
