Hi guys,
I'getting the impression that Zaino is good from the above posts.
<img src="graemlins/bigok.gif" border="0" alt="[thumbsup]" />
Do you guys know if its available on line to ship to a backwater like London?
Are there any UK Rennlisters that have been able to get hold of it?

I'd just go to <a href="http://www.zainobros.com" target="_blank">www.zainobros.com</a> print out the form and mail it. They will ship, I'm sure. However, I'd wait until it was warmer in the UK as it works best when applied at 15 degrees or higher. This stuff truly is fantastic, as it makes my polar silver car almost glow rather than shine.

I have to agree that Zaino works much better than anything else currently available, even the Zymol carbon creme. Professional detail shops don't use it mainly because they cannot buy it in bulk, i.e. gallon jugs like traditional waxes. Its not cost effective. I've also noticed that they tend to be skeptical of a "synthetic" polish. I use the Z-5 on my black 993 and its amazing. The only problem is that I find myself applying it too often!

I feel dumb for asking, but how can I tell if my white car has a clear coat <img src="graemlins/c.gif" border="0" alt="[ouch]" /> ?

All you need:

Zymol HD-Cleanse
Zymol Concours

It will do nicely, at a price, but well worth it.

Hi Matt,
I have the Zymol Ital kit.
I like the finish but I have to allocate a whole Sunday morning and it doesn't happen often enough.
How does Zaino compare to Zymol, and is the concours worth the extra $$$?
Cheers
Tito

Tito,

I'm going to order some of the Zaino product from Dr. Alexander Terzic in Germany. I've heard so many rave reviews about it I've got to give it a go. You're welcome to try mine out when I get it.

Cheers,
Rob

Tito, you are right. It does take a while to do it all, but in the end, it's well worth it. Twice a year with the HD-Cleanse and maybe 3-4 times with Concours, using the Field Glaze spray in between is all it takes. I've never tried the Zaino, but have heard good things about it. I just remember that German paint, Porsche paint in particular, does not do well with certain polymer based polishes and waxes. Carnauba, AFAIK, is the best for ours cars. Now I don't know why polymers are not considered good, considering my next favorite is Klasse, a polymer based polish.

And BTW, Zymol is all Mr. Weiner uses.
