It is the best stuff I have used so far and I have tried a lot.

I washed the car with Dawn dish liquid to remove old wax and clean the car.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

However, no matter how many coats of Z5 I put on, it made no difference in the amount of visible swirls.
I ordered Zaino 2 months and have been waitingto try it since. Today was the day. This stuff is incredible. I have an black '02 carrera and have tried several systems, 3 step and others and this stuff has made my car look like it just came off the factory floor. I clayed it first and then Z5, Z6, then Z2. i couldn't be more pleased. Sal Z. really delivered on the promise. I will try to post a pic.
I just ordered the whole system last week for my blue metallic cab. I look forward to trying it. I will post a review as well. I have heard too many great things about this system.
I was introduced to Zaino when I had my 2000 Corvette C5. It was a great on my navy blue C5 so I couldn't wait to try it on my Porsche.
Today, I applied the polish lock, two coats of polish and enhancer. The whole process took me two hours and I was done. The wax it just as easy to take off and it is to put on. Great Stuff!!
I have used Zaino for the last year. It does as advertised as far as the ease of application. It was perfect for my situation b/c I could put it on in direct sunlight. However, no matter how many coats of Z5 I put on, it made no difference in the amount of visible swirls. The finish was very reflective, but lacked depth.
I got my Zaino the other day and put on 2 coats of ZFX enhanced Z5 and then 1 coat of ZFX enhanced Z2. Now my car is really shiny and the swirl marks seem to be less noticeable on my AS cab. I think a little more Z5 next will further reduce any swirls. It is really easy to apply and remove. Surpisingly so.
How difficult is it to apply the Zaino Clay bar?
I am plan to Zaino my whole car this weekend or next. I will post the results, etc. My car is coming out of the stereo shop after a four day install on Friday. I don't like detailing a car before shop work for obvious reasons.
zaino is very reflective and last a long time. very water repellent. the water beads very differently than zymol, P21S, griots, blitz, etc. i had 8 coats of Z2 after previous wax was stripped, clay, Z1, Z5 etc.
however, recently i changed to P21S. i like wax over polymers. P21S will not last as long but it's just as shiny and much deeper looking. just my 2 cents.
Check out the autopia forums at <a href="http://www.autopia.org." target="_blank">www.autopia.org</a>. These subjects are covered exhaustively. Lots of people use waxes over polymers.
Cheers,
Ken

Alright, I just spent part of the weekend using the Zaino system on the car.
I washed the car with Dawn dish liquid to remove old wax and clean the car.
I then used the clay bar along with their car wash as a lubricant to remove impurities.
I used Z5 polish, then Z6 gloss enhancer, then Z5 again, then 3 coats of Z2 protectant. I was also using their ZFX for ultra quick drying. It was a lot of work, but the car looks great. It is true that the car does look better with several coats of Z2 as opposed to one. Z2 and Z5 go on and off ultra easy. Most of the work was in the paint prep and cleaning. After the first application of Z5, everything goes much quicker.
I will post pics.

How difficult is the clay bar to use? I have never used a clay bar before and was wondering? Is it easy to apply and remove? How long did it take you?
Wilam
The clay bar was not a big deal. You have to lubricate it. Zaino recommends an ounce or two of their car wash mixed with 12 ounces or so of water. I can't say for sure that I did it 100% right, but I think it helped a bit.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
