I've always used Meaguirs in the past. Is Zaino that much better? If so, I'll probably switch.

I just got mine in the mail. Haven't had the time to use it yet. I've heard great things though.

Did my z5 first. Easy to apply and take off. Did z2 the next day and it was a little harder to take off. I put it on in the sun and it sat for a couple hours...maybe thats y, but all in all it was very easy and looks great.

I swore by Meguires until using Zaino products.
The first application if you multiple layers is time consuming. However after that it is a breeze.
Well worth the investment of money & time IMO.

I'm now up to layer 25 on my Le Mans Sunset Roadster. Looks AMAZING. Once you get really good at using the system, I can wash, apply z-7, z-5, z-7, z-5,z-7, z-2, z-7, in about 2 1/2 hours. Living in so cal and being able to apply it so thin, by the time I make it around the car with the Zaino, the Zaino I first applied is already dry. Do I always apply so many layers at once? no. But I usually wash and apply one coat of Zaino at the very least and that takes about a half hour. Worth every single penny. Definitely builds on itself as the shine keeps getting deeper and deeper. Pulled up to another lemans the other day and you would think they were different colors.

I use Zaino as well, but I have the PPW, so the impact is far reduced. The thing that I noticed is that the surface is not quite as slick using Zaino for some reason. A rag sitting on the surface of a Zaino'ed panel (even after using Dawn/Clay/Z5/Z5/Z2/Z2) holds the rag, where the same panel treated with Dawn/Clay/Zymol or some other good wax couldn't. The rag slid right off. I really like that so slippery you can't put a thing on it surface. Shame.
A:
BLUZTRK - Are you using the Z-6 between or after the final layer? Although mine felt quite slick after coats of Z-2 and Z-5 only, the Z-6 is supposed to make it even slicker.
