Hey fellow Autopians, I want your advice. I am currently using Zaino and it looks great. However I want to address some swirl marks and super-fine scratches in the finish. Tell me what you think of this process, all done by hand-

Dawn Wash

Clay bar it

Z7 wash

3M SMR for dark cars (mine is black)

Z7 wash it

Z5 with zfx accelerator, 3 times, and Z6 in between each coat

Then the next day

put 2 coats of Z2



Is this a complete lineup or would you add or change something?

thanks for your advice.:cool:
 
You can use the Z7 w/ the clay bar....so after that you just have to rinse and dry...... after the 3M SMR, you probably have to rewash it with Dawn to remove teh excess oil the 3M SMR adds.
 
I would switch the initial dawn wash and later Z7 wash positions. Dawn will not remove the Zaino, but the combination of claying and the SMR will - so a Z7 wash is fine to start out. After that, you will need to Dawn wash to strip the surface before re-applying Zaino, Z7 will not do it as well.
