Sorry for the red "x's"!! The only photo hosting I use is the good ole Autopia gallery. Due to size restrictions as I update my gallery with new photo's I have to delete old ones to make space.
Zane I continue to be very impressed with the Zaino line. It has been two months (almost to the day) since I applied the 3 coats and ZFX'd Z-5 and 3 coats of ZFX'd Z-2 (which I have since found out is actually Z-2 Pro) to my Lightning. In those 2 months I have maintained the finish with weekly washes using Z7 followed by an application of Z-6. I have been through a few rainstorms and even an ice storm in that time.
Beading - The truck still beads as if I had just applied the product. It produces numerous, very small and tight beads (similar to #16)that collect and run off the panels when I drive.
Slickness - This tends to diminish as the truck gets dirty but after a wash and Z-6 application the paint will feel as slick as the day I applied it. The one exception to the slickness is below the belt line of the truck (the area where water and dirt will get slung up from the tires during a rainstorm). This area is still smooth after a Z-6 application but the difference in slickness above the belt line is very noticeable.
Looks - The truck STILL looks like it has a fresh coat of Z-2 on it. There has been no noticeable change in its appearance in these 60+ days. Even when the truck gets dirty you can still see that "wet look" peeking through....very impressive.
If I get some time I will post a new thread in Detailing Products Discussion with some pics from the first Zaino session and its current state.
