Not really - we do know this will somehow be related to the First Church of Zaino. :smart:

Zaino was my first and only choice for my Maldives Blue Z4 (and other vehicles). It still is for several products: car wash, leather cleaner and the almighty Z10 Leather Conditioner plus a few others.

For the occasional home detailer, there is nothing better than Zaino products (Klasse as well).

After many many different product samples over the last 2 summers, Zaino on a black Z4 made it look too much like it was wrapped in plastic. It had shine but not pop and I tried applying in many configurations. I still ended up with that Saran Wrap/Cling film look. I didn't like it.

A detailer friend of mine got a sample of a new product earlier this year. He told me that it was highly recommended for darker painted vehicles. After a full prep and application I was completely and totally convinced this is the best I've ever used. It not only had the shine it had the illusive "pop" one tries to achieve. There may be better and perhaps more expensive but value for money, this is the best, the zenith.

I went through the sample I had and have a few more applications left. I used this on my wife's black Mercury and had the same results. I am totally impressed.

I needed more. For $175.00 per jar (you do get a free refill) this would be a bargain at twice that price IMHO. Plus you get this nifty box and DVD. It is the best for dark color paint.

When the delivery came on Saturday...it felt like my birthday. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

For $175 per jar I would expect one application to last my lifetime, forget the free refill! just kidding, By the way, I have a black car too and I bet you can't make it look any better. :lol: :poke:

How to get the best out of your cars finish:

90% Preparation
10% Product




For the average driver with white or silver finish, I suggest Zaino AIO. It will protect for months and months.

For the little bit more than average: Meguiar's NXT 2.0.
You need 3 products: Protectant (paste or liquid), Booster, Ultimate Detailing Spray.

Rabman, If you lived in the KC metro, you would have the second best looking Z4 in the area. I am always around to help a zed driver make their cars look better. Josh (new member Halycon will vouch for my ability to work on other's cars.) had a Z3 that we made look really good after only an afternoon of effort.
