Question about Zaino
so.... i bought some zaino at the "new car show" (only really cool ones were the lexus with vibrating back seats, the M5 and the dodge sidewinder, but anyway) i wanted to know how i should apply it... should i rub it in hard or wipe it on? my paint is all oxidized and faded. thanks in advance.

Ive got the same problem with oxidation and fading.. i buffed it twice with rubbing compound to take all the crap off.. and it looks better but u can still see the oxidation a LITTLE... can this zaino stuff fix that.. if so, which product.

Here's Zaino's site which can answer some of your questions. http://www.zainobros.com/files/faq.htm You won't be disappointed in their product's performance but be willing to use some elbow grease to get the results you want.

Zaino is great stuff but it is not a miracle cure. If your paint is oxidized too much a polish alone may not help you. You may want to try a small section before you apply to the entire car.
About the only thing I know to do with heavy oxidation is to have the paint buffed. This will cut the very top layer of the clear coat and give you a new finish to work with.

well this is stock paint and im almost positive there was no clear coat. we buffed out a section of the hood and it looked much better so if i have to i can buff it 1st.
