On White besides protecting the paint and adding an amazing shine, you'll also avoid any yellowing that could occure with some carunba based waxes after time in the sun as Zaino is not carnuba based. Andy

Yes the initial wash is with Dawn as it's great for removing anything already on the surface of the paint. That's why I stress that people use specific automobile wash soap when washing their cars as the majority of them don't contain the alkaloids (sp?) that will remove car care products.

Guys Guys....here's the deal...I agree the wax test thing is stupid...I didn't want to pay for it either, I did because I did for promotional reasons....I was just trying to make a point with the product that I use. Cone Smasher: if you're worried about protection don't be, Zaino's products contain no silicones, no abrasives to hurt the paint AND they have the best UV protection of any wax in the industry (UV 40). Zaino's site raves about protection up to 6 months if you regularly wash with the correct products (car designed washes not dish soap). Prices are as follows: $75 detail: wash/vacuume/ZFX-Z2(polish)/ Z-6(gloss ehnahcer) $100 detail: wash/vacuume/ZFX-Z5(swirl remover)/ZFX-Z2(polish)/Z-6(gloss ehnahcer) $125 detail: wash/vacuume/Z-18(clay bar)/Z-7(wash again)/ZFX-Z5(swirl remover)/ZFX-Z2(polish)/Z-6 (gloss enhancer) NO MACHINES will touch the finish of your car this is all applied by hand. Typical timeframe for the $125 detail is 4 hours. I feel for the work performed these rates are pretty competative and may increase in the future but the best way to get business is with word of mouth. Andy

Edit: Bumping this to the top...2004 detailing has officially begun and because this board was soo great to me last year there will be no price changes for '04. I offer a mobile detailing service using Zaino automotive polishes. Services range from a basic wash/vacuume/polish, to the full Zaino treatment (wash/clay bar/wash again/swril remover/polish/gloss enhancer). I specialize in exotic and show vehicles, but cater to anyone interested. Anyone who isn't familer with Zaino check out www.zainostore.com for further details on their products. Zaino polishes were recently named #1 by Guru Reports in a test of 46 premium car care products. Please contact me at 614-747-0002 or kutschaj@excite.com for further details. [ 29.
