Detailing Thread [For Newbies][continued]

[jmpet626]

Sana nga bisita ako, kaya lang dito ako sa south ng Pinas, hehe. Kaya hanggang internet nalang ang eb, haha.

Medyo may kamahalan talaga ang Zaino pero sulit na sulit. Kahapon umulan dito, naputikan yung sidings. Pagdating sa bahay hose down lang dumudulas lang ang dumi. Then water drying lang. Parang walang nangyari, makintab ulit. Di ko pa to naranasan sa ibang sealant, kahit sa Wolfgang.

Kaya lang ang disadvantage sa pag dedetailing, eh parang ayaw mo nang gamitin yung kotse pag na detail na, haha. Imagine yung sa akin daily driver na black pa. Masama talagang ma addict sa detailing haha.

Thanks for the compliments and invitation to eb.

San ba maganda umorder ng zaino? Sa LAzaino.com walang online ordering..

i think thats the best place to order already if you're in california, although you still have to pay taxes since its within the same state, just ring them up and they'll ask you for information and how you can wire transfer the payment to them and then they'll ship it to you of course the shipping would be cheaper since its within Cali, you can also ask them to send the bill to your paypal. The current Zaino products we've selling here along with the upcoming Zaino boxes we ordered was coursed through our friend which is a local reseller/detailer in the US, so if you're ordering for personnal use better stick to LAzaino around 2 years ago we ordered 2 Z2 and 2 Z5 we only got charged 7$ for shipping and thats next day delivery already, if its for reselling we've already tried to contact Zaino in NJ and we were directed to the distributor in Singapore which ended up costing a lot more than getting it from the US, so it all goes back to Lazaino.

You mean you're selling Zaino products? If I had known this I would have ordered from you.

Ma'm madkatz, have you tried Zaino Clear Seal? If yes, how would you rate it?

Hehe sorry but our last bottle went with Meds69 it actually had some Zaino in it thats why its very glossy and reflective hahaha but i'll let you know once the new ones arrive, but if i were you i would still invest on KAIO and KSG, these would really be a great investment not to mention its very economical and KAIO is one of the best cleaner sealants out there.

What color is your car? if its light colored Zaino is ok, if its dark WG is good

Yes that should remove some fine swirls

[madkatz]

Ma'm madkatz, have you tried Zaino Clear Seal? If yes, how would you rate it?

Hahaha yup we did sell them before and are still selling them but we recently ran out of their popular products thats why we have another shipment coming up its just half a box each, but to be really REALLY honest a lot of people find Zaino very expensive and since you also need to factor in ZFX in the solution to achieve its maximum potential at 5 coats unlike KSG which only requires at most 3 layers and then its up to another layer of sealant, this brings one 8oz bottle of Z2 pro and ZFX to around the same price as 16oz of KAIO and KSG each! So people really find Zaino expensive if not it wouldn't have taken a long time to sell these and we would have chosen Zaino as the sealant of choice for our details, we opted for more economically priced sealants like KSG, Opti-seal and 4*.

Hmmm ZCS is a lot like 4-star UPG and Opti-seal if you ask me, its something slightly below Blackfire but definitely lasts a little longer, its also like Z5 in terms of looks which makes the paint very reflective, Which do you prefer more if i may ask Z2 or Z5? did you notice their difference?

[electone]

Which do you prefer more if i may ask Z2 or Z5? did you notice their difference?

I can't tell because I layered Z2 over Z5. However, I did notice that the reflections became more distinct after applying Z2. But there's no way to tell if the improvement in reflections was due to Z2 ALONE or because of the total of 6 layers applied - 3 for Z5 and another 3 for Z2.

They say that Z5 fills the swirls but I was disappointed over this claim. After 3 layers of Z5 the few swirls that were present before application were still there.

Hehe a lot of people are really disappointed with Zaino's claim over Z5 filling swirls thats why we prefer Z2 slightly over Z5

idol, ano wax/sealants nilagay mo sa roof/sides ng jazz?
meds69 over 915? or meds69 lang?

[madkatz]

oh yeah one other thought about ZCS is that its basically a good topper but not really as durable and as good as a pure sealant, the results always seem to vary, we have done some cars where ZCS lasted longer and some where Z2 lasted longer but usually it is used as a topper Also with its price i would just get myself another bottle of Z2 or Z5 with ZFX and then just layer again rather than just top it, its very easy to use but the price is too much for the results it produces, this would be the lazy mans sealant.

Thanks, naka order na ko ZFX, Z5 at Z2... Need pa ba ng ZAIO for paint prep? Nakalimutan ko kasi i order hehehe. Also pwede naman sa checked luggage yung Z2?

It would be best if you have ZAIO, its like KAIO and KSG, ZAIO is really designed to let Z2 o5 Z5 bond with the paint and since they belong to the same polymer family they should bond pretty well. It should be ok, but if you want to be really safe put it inside a Ziploc Plastic bag, the first Z2 and Z5 we had were flammable old versions so all the Z2 and Z5 we asked our friend to bring over was left at the airport so we actually ended up wasting money, but i talked to Sal Zaino a few months back and he said that the new Z2 and Z5 are now VOC Compliant meaning it is still flammable but not as volatile as before, he said he's still not sure if it would be ok to bring via plane but there would be a better chance now to bring some over via plane. When are you coming back? if you every happen to have any order from AG could you pls do me a favor and include a Lavor and bosch Attachment?

I know mam madkatz answered this already.

But you don't need really Z-AIO if you are going to use ZFX (which I see you've ordered already) especially for the initial layer. This is according to the Zaino FAQ on the website. ZFX already functions as a bonding agent as well as a cure accelerator.

Besides, Z-AIO can't be layered cause it has cleaning properties.

I made the mistake of ordering Z-AIO so it's just lying around not a drop used. I guess I'll just use it to detail friends' cars, if they will let me.
