Zaino. Which Product(s) Do I Buy

I been reading about Zaino and I would like to purchase their product. I will be using them on my Aspen as well as my 1998 Stratus. Can someone please tell me which items or what kit to purchase. I've only had my Aspen for a few weeks but I've had my stratus since 1998. The stratus's paint was still shiney until I let it sit for 7 months in the sprinkler while I was deployed to Iraq. Thanks

You can save money (or spend the equivalent and get more) by ordering Gary's products. Easier to apply and remove that the traditional BIG NAME stuff... and yet equivalent to superior results!

If you're really interested in detailing and doing it better yourself, then order his DVD explaining how to do it all. It's tremendous... like attending one of his seminars!

From where do I order the DVD? Are His products synthetic and long lasting like what I've read about Zaino?

Yes, Gary's paint sealant is a synthetic and good for six months. One bottle of his sealant will complete a car detail four times, i.e., 2 years.

His DVD and products can be ordered from the website (see post #2). I would recommend checking out his "kits" which are described in one of the "sticky" threads in the Detailing Forum he sponsors.

I agree with Mike & Tim about Gary's products. I can't think of a single member in the ~2 years I've been here who's been disappointed. He's got many many satisfied customers here. That's gotta be worth something for sure! The stuff's so easy to use too.

I'm a long time user of Zaino, and absolutely love it. I'll have to find pics of my '99 Hugger Orange Camaro SS. I would buy the Z1, Z2 ( aspen ) , Z5 ( stratus), Z7 spray, the tire spray ( the only one I've ever used that doesn't spray all over your car as soon as you drive away, and the leather conditioner is excellent as well.

I've never used anything that applies and is so easy to use like Zaino. I used to Zaino my SS 3-4 times per week and the shine just got deeper and deeper each time, and all it took was 30 minutes tops

I use Zaino and have found it to be absolutely brilliant. The shine when finished on by Black C is just incredible. It almost looks like wet glass.

As to what the other guys have been saying about Gary (turbomangt), I will definitely try his stuff once I run out of my Zaino. Have heard nothing but good reports.

I've used Zaino and absolutely love the polishes on darker colored cars. I REALLY enjoy their tire shine. Its the best i've ever used. One spray on a sponge is all I need to shine the whole tire. Try the above listed zaino products, or give some menzerna a shot! Maybe some klasse also.
