So, what's the verdict? I searched the site, but didn't see anything (probably missed it). Plan to only use for final removal of Zaino Z2/Z5 (easy off). I currently use MF towels (which works fine), but figured these might save a little time. And they're pretty cheap ($20 for 6). I was...

Been using Zaino ZPC with Orange pad + Flex DA (great results), but wanted to try with a stronger cutting pad. So how's the LC purple foamed wool pad work with ZPC? Does the ZPC break down good, and if so is the cutting power much more with the purple wool vs. orange pad? If possible, I'd...

Steps: 1.) Prep cars surface to a perfect swirl free finish. 2.) Apply Zaino Z2 Pro/Fx. Several coats if desired. 3.) When car gets dirty, go to the best touchless carwash in area. Try to find one with air dryers. Once car leaves bay, inspect for any remaining dust/dirt. Remove...

OK Pro's.... I'm ready to take the jump into the rotary World. The orbital PC is OK, but just takes too long to get the results I desire. My first question deals with equipment. It seems though my searching that the Dewalt DW849 and Milwaukee 5540 are both great products. Therefore, I'm...

Basically, Will Blackfire tint/darken/yellow the paint? I have Silver Metallic paint, and do not think tinting/darkening/yellowing the paint will help its appearance. P.S. - I know Zaino is 99% optically perfect. This question is specific to Blackfire. Thanks in advance.

Fella's, Metallic Silver. Perfect prep done. Swirls are gone, surface smooth as glass. I want a deep, deep, reflective shine. Like the car is under water. DURABILITY IS NOT AN ISSUE (although, must last one month). What product should I finish with? Zaino? Klasse? Blackfire...

I could have swore I read a post a few weeks back from someone who used Zaino with a PC, and got even better results. I searched for the post, but could not find. Does anyone have this link or any advice? I realize Zaino is not an abrasive, but this guy said for some reason he got way better...
