How often do you remmend to your customers that they should have a full exterior detail vs just a wash and wax?

I've read many Zaino users top Z with a carnuba and many just layer Z with more Z. Do you use a topper on Z? If so, which topper?

In the last few weeks I haven't seen so many whitewall tires in my life. What do y'all use to clean whitewalls and what's your tire dressing procedure with whitewalls?

I've been seeing a lots of threads with people using combos of topping sealants with carnubas in the same day. Particuarly EX + S100 and #20 and #16. I was under the impression that ALL sealants required 24 hour cure time, if this isn't true ... which sealants can you top in the same day?

After trying just about everything on the market, I think I'm going to finally give Zaino a try. Since I already own AIO what's the minimal products I can initially purchase to give Z a try?

Anyone use NAPA vinyl and rubber dressing? I think it's only $17.99/gallon.

Have you ever been in mobile situation where a car was too dirty for QEW? Ever use S&W in conjunction with QEW?

Has it been determined if EX without carnuba is going to be released? What's the reasoning behind removing carnuba from EX? Is it for those who want to top EX with the carnuba wax of their choice?

When it comes to spending $$$ on detailing supplies, I'm certainly not timid, as I've purchased about every premium product excluding Zaino known to mankind (don't ask me why no Z):nixweiss But my biggest pet peeve is shipping costs. I've actually purchased a $12 bottle of polish and paid...

I have considerable exterior black trim on my truck. I've used many protectants like Armorall which looks great for one day then it streaks. It seems the most durable vinyl protectant for exterior applications is #40. Any other recommendations for vinyl protectants for exterior applications?

I'm going to detail an early 80's Chyrsler this weekend. It has a partial (half) vinyl roof. Never detailed a vinyl roof before. How's this? Scrub with Woolite solution with soft brush let dry, then Wipe with Meg #40 Vinyl and Rubber Cleaner

On another truck forum they're carrying on :bounce about some Bio-kleen products, namely Mach vehicle wash and Mach polish and sealant. I believe they're even buying into the "never wax your car again" load of crap. I've never even heard of this stuff. http://www.biokleen.com/automotive.cfm

Which type of bottle do you prefer to dispense products? Do you prefer the flip top (type B in the picture) or the red tip "yorker" cap (type C in the picture)?

Presently, I'm planning: 1) wash 2) clay 3) rinse 4) SFP 5) PwC 6) EX x 2 7) S100 or NXT ... haven't decided because I haven't tried NXT yet

I've tried almost every product out there, but I've never tried Zaino. I've heard many Z testimonals. I'd like to hear from former Zaino users to see why they dropped Z and what they use now.

I know red is susceptible to fading, but is it inevitable? Or, if you maintain red paint and don’t let oxidation form will it stay bright? Is oxidation the only culprit of fading? I’m talking about a time frame of 10-15 years down the road.

I have to admit there’s a part of me that wasn’t pulling for NXT to be successful. (flame city) I know my thinking is flawed, but here’s my rationale. First, I haven’t tried NXT yet, but after reading the initial positive reviews it’s my understanding that...

You know how certain products seem suited for some colors better than others? Have you found NXT to be better on darker colors than lighter (or vice versa)?
