    Apply S100 cleanser with PC or by hand?

    Just got some S100 paint cleanser and carnauba wax from the local Harley dealer (that V-Rod is badass). My question: should I apply the cleanser by hand or with my PC? If by PC then which pad is recommended? Any other tips/tricks about the S100 (P21s) cleanser and wax application would...

    Topping Zaino with Carnauba?

    There's been a lot of talk (or so it seems) about the fact that topping Zaino with carnauba would probably be detrimental to the bonding process. But consider these points: - Dawn removes carnauba - Dawn doesn't remove Zaino What if you top Zaino with carnauba (for a few weeks or...

    What's wrong with Z5?

    So, I finished applying Z5+ZFX 2 hours ago and it's still not ready to be removed. I've removed it on a few panels and am left with a hazy/streaky finish; and yes, I'm using high-quality cotton towels to remove. Oh, I know, I must have applied too much! Of course! Well, I did my whole...

    Repair windshield divot?

    So, my new S2000 is less than a week old and I just got a windshield 'divot' (I'm not sure of the technical term). At first I thought a little chunk of windshield was broken off, but it's actually a tiny hole, and the 'divot' is 'inside' the glass. AND, this was on the way back to work from...

    Here she is (big pics)

    pics are after a dawn wash and 2x Z5+ZFX. Still swirly from the dealership, but I want to give Z5 the benefit of the doubt and apply more coats, before I think about some sort of SMR...

    Zaino melting point?

    I've been thinking about putting some Z on the Weber Genesis; but with internal temperatures reaching 550+ (probably 600+), I'm guessing that the lid isn't much cooler. Anyone know the melting point of Zaino? Anyone wax (I use that term loosely) their gas grill? Thanks...

    What about the PC 333VS?

    I've already got one of these (for woodworking): http://www.portercable.com/cgi-bin/products.cgi?method=byid&prod_id=333vs As far as I can tell the only real difference between it and the PC buffer so often talked about here is the speed (5k - 12k OPM rather than 2.5k-6k OPM) and it is...

    First timer, difficult Z5+ZFX removal

    Used Zaino for the first time today. I mixed up an ounce of Z5 with ZFX and applied using Meguiar's foam applicators. The Z treatment was preceded by a Dawn wash (washed horizontal panels twice, since they received Liquid Glass recently). I thought I applied it thinly ... I got 1 coat on...
