Zaino + Klasse?

Has anyone had experience in using the Zaino and Klasse products at the same time? I have the Zaino Z6 "Gloss Enhancer" (detailing) spray and my daily driver was treated with Klasse AIO and SG several months ago - would like to frashen it up using the spray but am concerned they might not be compatible. I would really like to not have to redo the car with AIO and SG if they aren't... just wondering if anyone else had tried this already...

Try a one foot section on the trunk and take a look. Easy enough to remove if you don't like what you see!

Hi,

It was more the idea of whether the two systems were going to be compatible - creating some frankenstein concoction of the two chemical sets. However, as it was my DD and not the Boxster, I had already done what you suggested shortly after my first post. I figured out it was unlikely to harm the paint and the worst I'd be out is redoing the one panel where I'd tried it.

OK, all that said, it appears to have worked fine. The finish looks a little deeper than before and it is Zaino-slick (Klasse is not as slick feeling as Zaino). I'll keep it to just this small section (just the hood) for awhile and see if there is any unexpected result (shorter finish life, etc.). The difference would be indistiguishable in a digital photo so I don't have anything to share in that way...

I have tried this.

The Zaino spray seems to work fine over the Klasse so far. I use it for the occasional smudge or dust. Polishes right up.
