The Optimum Wax is misleading, its seems more a polymer than a wax. Not sure why they would even waste time putting wax into it. Essentialy i am reading that optima wax is same as zaino minus the durability yet plus on ease of use.
Still reading though, soaking it up. I am thinking i want to learn how to use a machine to put on z2 and remove z2 with out leaving scratches.

Yes most of us are very extreme about car care. With in a short period of time after a car is new, paint blemishes and marring are inevitable, in which case machine polishing is necessary. Some products will temporarily fill in the blemishes so it looks ok until the product washes out. The only time I believe that to be the best approach is when your dealing with old paint that measures too thin to polish away the marring. Optimum is not wasting time by adding wax to their polymer sealant, their improving it. You see, some people like the look of wax but want the protecting and longevity of a sealant. Optimum Car Wax is a very good combination of the two. The best part is how easy it is to use as well. Compared to Zaino I would say it looks warmer more like a wax and protects almost as well. But because of how easy it is to use, I usually apply a coat after every few washes. So now the protection is optimal as opposed to applying a product once and having it's protection slowly dissipate over a few months. Be carful of reading too much over there at Autopia, you may come over to the dark side
