blk on blk - thanks for sharing - what was the condition of your paint and clearcoat before you applied? Did this clear up minor blemishes and/or swirl marks if you had them?

Well the car is new from old stock so the paint was pretty much perfect when I got the car last month. I did have a few swirl marks already from washing. Nothing that noticeable. This did indeed help remove the swirls marks. I cannot see any right now. We'll see if they return when I wash it again. But I would say that it is effective in covering/removing swirl marks and minor surface scratches.

I have used this before as well. Good product but I still prefer Zaino. Easier to apply and lasts longer.

I was in fact looking for Zaino bros at this car show when I saw this booth and demo. I have heard others who have been very happy with the Zaino polish, and will probably try that next time. This was right there and I didn't have to wait on shipping not to mention it was 2 bottles for the price of 1. We'll see how it works over time, but I will probably try Zaino next time.

Attached is the link.

I have no affiliation. Just a very happy customer. I have used it for about 10 years too! I have also tried everything else and still come back to Zaino.

Visited there site and it looks like they try to sell all kinds of stuff. I couldn't figure out what the simple polish or wax was if I wanted to buy. At least I know what size zeno t-shirt to buy. Which one is the BEST Z1 - Z6? or do you buy them all for about $70 bucks..

Liquid Luster is OK stuff but from what I am told.....old technology.

It can't remove marring, halo-scratches or swirls, especially when applied by hand, because it doesn't have the correct abrasives in it. So instead of removing scratches it temporarily fills them in. It might last a couple of weeks or until the oils evaporate or they get washed out.

If you want easy then you all need to get some Optimum spray wax and give it a try. You can get it from Autogeek or Top of the Line. You can wax your Porsche in under 10 minutes.

By the way, Blk on Blk.....nice looking Porsche

That product has been around for years, for you canadians it can still be found at some Canadian Tire Stores. It is very easy to use fast on fast off, only downfall is it doesnt last that long.However as i said its so easy to use it doesnt really matter. Its a pretty good product
