As for zaino, the stuff lasts quite a while. I allways use Z6 spray after a wash, and my stuffs marble smooth for months. It also doesnt melt off my black car.

so for value over money i think your arguement is flawed. 3 months vs 1 week you figure out which one is more work.
You use just Z6? I washed my car the other day, and I'm nervous about putting anything on it, because it's NOT Zaino...the detailers I used don't like Zaino, so it's got whatever stuff they used (I think Griot's?)

Last thing I want is for it to puddle up / get spotty....I'll probably strip the wax off this fall, and start building layers up over the winter, when I won't be driving it and can take my time.

no, i put on a few layers of z2 then maintain it with z6. I have not put on z2 in maybe 2 months.
Right now i wash once a week, after i wash i use z6 and my car is still marble smooth.

Since school and work take up all my time i have not been able to keep up with a once a month z2 session like i wanted to.

My point was zaino doesnt wash off any where NEAR as fast as the Meguire's NXT and Turtle Wax ICE synthetic wax, based on my readings and reviews of it. I was going to switch becuase they seemed easyier accessable but after reading about them its a waste of time.

I'm new to Zaino and I've used it as directed for the past two months. Great results and it's not that expensive. I couldn't believe it only took an ounce of Z2 to do my Z. Take a look at my pics in 'My Album' http://www.the370z.com/members/idzrv...otia-370z.html.
