ive just started getting it in but know a few pro's that use it daily and have seen the stuff in action and its top notch gear :grin: the clear seal is amazing stuff and very economical, there polishes good and there detailing spray is awesome stuff aswell as there spray sealant which is devine :grin:
Zaino gear at first glance is very expensive to buy in and the amount you get for your money is very small compared to other product ranges ie the clearseal ive got is £27/28 for 6floz of product :shocked: which isnt alot  but people need to understand that its all highly concentrated stuff,

The Zaino system is very good in my opinion and well worth the money but its not for the inexperienced detailer tbh due to its high concentration and specific method of application and prep procedures that have to be adheard to to get maximum effect/efficiency from the system.

Cheers, think I may give it a go sometime, just need to whittle down this dodo collection I seem to have aquired :smiley:

& to MrBurns, I'd vouch for any of the dodo waxes (the juiced rubbish boys one being my personal favorite), and the jetseal 109 (applied to wheels in nov, still going strong now).
