[Banana S]

All you need is a tiny bit of Z-5 on the applicator pad at any given time. I usually make a very thin, dotted "W" on the applicator pad, then squeeze the pad together to work the Z-5 into the pad. (I don't use any Z-6 on the pad when I'm applying Z-5.) Do this once for the hood, once for each door, once for the front fenders, once for the rear fenders, once for the trunk, and once each for the front and rear bumpers. Like I said, if you can actually see the Z5 on the paint (other than just a faint haze), you've used more than you need, and you're just making the job harder for yourself.

Let the Z-5 dry, and when you wipe it off you'll be amazed at how much less hazing you get, and how much easier it is to wipe off. And the resulting shine and "slickness" will be the same or better after you apply the Z-6.

Try it and let me know how it works for you.
