I just went to the zaino web site and read their very long instructional page... seems like they want me to buy a lot of product from them!

Can anyone tell me exactly what you use and in what order you use it? Do you use all the bottles of stuff they recommend, or what have you found to work?

Don't forget I have an old boxster with black paint. Every swirl mark, scratch and nick shows up unless you've just waxed it and it's midnight

Sheer Darkness covers up a lot of problems on a black paint job!

Great shine MinK6! (and your photoshop skill aint bad either )

I'm with Randall, black is a b****. I have not had the quality time available to really get mine where I would like it... yet.

I used ZFX with Z5 & Z2

Here is what I did:

Liquid Dawn wash (Twice)
(Z18 Clay)
(Z7 Wash)
(ZFX+Z5)
(Z6)
(ZFX+Z2)
(Z6)
(ZFX+Z5)
(Z6)
(ZFX+Z2)
(Z8)

Wiped drool off the ground with a microfiber towel. haha

Since I was new to Zaino I went ahead and bought the "Zaino Total Protection Show Car Kit" + bottle of Z8.
Not a bad investment if you ask me.

I think I will stock up on Z7 car wash and Z8 since I think I will be using these more than the other products.

Randall...that is your quote of ALL-TIME...hahahaha

That should be a disclaimer on all black colored cars.

Very nice indeed. After some convincing from an ardent Zaino using classic Corvette friend of mine, I did exactly the regimen you did:
Liquid Dawn wash (Twice)
(Z18 Clay)
(Added another Dawn wash here)
(Z7 Wash)
(ZFX+Z5)
(Z6)
(ZFX+Z2)
(Z6)
(ZFX+Z5)
(Z6)
(ZFX+Z2)
(Z8)

and I am absolutely stoked with the results. No pics, sorry, but it's still smooth as a baby's behind after 5 k miles and many washings. All I do is use Z6 inbetween and after each wash. That's real key as far as I'm concerned!
