Zaino/Car care question
Hey Guys,
I am about to place my order for Zaino.
The Zaino guy says to use 100% white towels
made in the usa...(Fieldcrest...etc).
Is this curcial to the poliching job?
Also, can you reuse these towels when you are
finished waxing/polishing Zaino with them.
Usually, I just use the small towels that I
buy from Costco, and I just toss them after
I'm finished polishing....but these
Fieldcrest towels will be expensive. What
is the best way to clean them?
Any advice would be great!
Thanks!
Tommy

I don't think they are 100% crucial to the job. I didn't use those kinds of towels. It was 100% cotten, but not made in the USA. I bought them at walmart at 12 pairs for somewhere around $3.00. I used nicer towels for the finishing though (also bought at walmart). It seems kinda wierd that a towel would be 100% crucial to the polishing job.
Your car looks great even without zaino on it, so I wouldn't worry. Just use what you always use and I am sure it will be fine. They reccomend the towels because you may scratch your car when you are doing the polishing. Zaino contains no abrasives whatsoever, so I don't find the possibility of scratching your car is too high.

Well what I did is asked mom or grandma for a used bath towel that they were gonna replace sometime with a new one, if you cant do that any good towel that is cotton will work, I used a combo of both... Just make sure you read the direction's carefully and take your time. it is the best stuff i have ever used hands down. The results were like no other. Have fun, show us a pic when ur done.. Kevin

The reason for the 100% USA cotton is so there is no rayon or nylon in the towel. The rayon or nylon will cause scratches or swirl marks.
To wash the towels just dump them in the washer with a good liquid soap and no softner.
To get Zaino go to www.zainobros.com

Wash with liquid Tide, no bleach. NO GRANULES, they will get stuck in the towel and scratch your finish.
