I did a quick search of 'xzilon'.

It's a "sealant" I'm assuming.

Personally, I'd stick with Zaino. 'Xzilon' isn't going to prevent scratches, etc., and I don't think it would provide much more, if any, protection versus keeping your car polished with Zaino.

I haven't read up more yet on 'Xzilon', but using Zaino alone, I have had nothing but positive results.

I would just go with zaino like Moose said.

If its a must for you to use both then I would try use both of them out in different orders to see which ones look better what way.

I had Xzilon applied to my Camaro 2 months after purchase. When I purchased the Camaro the original wax the used was great, after rain there was never water marks, no wiping off or anything. After the Xzilon coating the water marks were horrendous and very difficult to remove. As far as I'm concerned the product is a complete waste of time and money and in my case seems to make the paint more susceptible to marks. I went into the dealer and got "loud" in the showroom, got removed into an office and they refunded the full amount.

You must really like this stuff for bumping a thread that is almost six years old.

When they sell a product called "G-whizz" what do you expect.

Update on xzilon. Crap mate. Got shit on by a pterodactyl and it took a cutting compound to get it off after 2 hours in the sun. Crap mate.
