    A little help with swirls

    I have had a '97 Harley Road King since new, and maintained the painted areas (which are minimal) in near perfect condition. For the last half of the eight years I've used Zaino, and continue to do so. The gas tank has a raised dashboard or console on top of it. So there is a tendency to rub...

    zaino and numerous layers

    comment regarding the 75 layers assertion. I'm a Zaino guy, and earlier this year I was putting about 4-5 layers on my motorcycle per week. I figured I had applied some ridiculous number. Anyway, I had queried Sal Z on another issue and he suggested via e-mail that I call him. When I...

    what after GEPC and before Z?

    I've been using Zaino for a few years now and am well satisfied. I also want to use GEPC to remove swirls, and then get back to the Z system. I'm talking minor swirls, and the GEPC did the job in a hand rubbed test. Next is using the PC to do a couple of vehicles with the GEPC. I understand...

    S100 carnauba wax over polymer (again)

    My plan is to continue to use zaino as a base coat protection on my vehicles for its long term durability, and then use the s100 wax on top for additional protection, and its great appearance. It is also very straight forward and quick to use. Given that approach, is there any logical role...

    new acr, zaino, and clay

    We purchased a brand new Lexus RX330 for my wife this past week, but she decided to leave it in garage and use her Jeep GC. Then on Friday our garage door track broke making the garage door essentially non operational. Bottom line- pulled car out of garage, it got rained on, and we used the...

    Categories Of Microfiber Towels

    Each supplier seems to categorize the MF towels differently. For example, Griot's sells one style (white) for wax removal and another (yellow) for polish removal. The latter is supposed to be thicker to pull in the abrasives. CMA seems to sell versions for glass, for applying wax and polish...

    shelf life and freezing

    After reading about the virtues of S-100 wax on this board, especially that it might disappear from selves, I went out and bought a couple of the paste wax and the cleanser. I notice the info slip inside the jar says to "protect from heat and frost" 1) always kept all my car care products...

    ultimate car wash nozzle

    Not my term, but Costco is selling "The Ultimate Car Wash Nozzle" for $19.99. It is "made" by Bonaire Industries, is "engineered from stainless steel, fiberglass, brass, and hard rubber." Seems quite heavy and solid. It appears to be similar to the Griot's "Finest water Hose Nozzle" but Griot...
