Cool Zaino pics..

... Ive been using Mothers for a long time, but Ive got a Black car now and it has a nice paint job so Im thinking of stepping up in the next few weeks to Zaino.

Now what Im wondering is if any of you hardcore Zaino guys have pictures of your cars? Maybe some Before/After stuff? Im already sold on the stuff, but Id like to see some eye candy.

Nice pics guys! So umm, should I just order straight from Zaino, or is there a OR/WA rep?

What stuff do you Zaino Experts reccommend?

Personally for your Black car, I'd recommend ZFX, Z5, Z6, and Z7 for the perfect starter kit. If you do decide to go with Z, remember one important tip and everything will work much better, Zaino works best with VERY THIN applications. You really can't go to thin as long as there is polish on the surface. The single biggest mistake I see first time Zainoers making is applying WAY too thick Z coats, usually because they are used to piling on the carnauba. For an average experienced Z user, you should get around 2 to 3 coats per ounce. Believe it or not, I have heard one or two cases where some guys are getting 6 or 7 coats per ounce. Personally, I don't see how that is possible with a midsize car, but more power to them!

Here are the closest Z distributors to you that I know of:
WA: Authorized Seattle Area Zaino Distributor
Duane Lodell
dwlodell@qwest.net

OR,
codyreich@attbi.com He lives in Van, WA...

I have heard good things about Duane, don't know much about the other one...

Good Luck!
