I too found Zaino here and I feel the same as you. I'll only use it for its ease of use and performance. I know other products are good too, but i've been polishing cars for 25 years and I get the best job for the least elbow grease with Zaino. Just my opinion.

I've been using Klasse AIO and Klasse Glaze on my Fords. It works very quickly and is easy to remove.

I think Zaino is the best I've used, and comes off black plastic unlike most waxes, but it is pricy. The best value for the $ is probably NXT. I've recommended it to 2 friends, who absolutely love the results. If your car is exposed to the elements a synthetic wax will last longer than carnuba.

I use Klasse AIO and Glaze to wax the matte black plastic mouldings and panels.

By far Zaino is the best. It is worth every penny. The stuff last longer so in the long run it is cheaper. Zaino is great

That's odd, I've used it on all my cars. Seems to give a good bead for up to about 8 months.

"Wax" can be a fuzzy term. Typically it's thought of as carnuba-based protestants. These can create a very high quality finish and fairly durable too. Various waxes have higher combinations of the actual carnuba, which is quite expensive, in addition to proprietary additives. As carnuba is very hard, they are mixed with petroleum distillates to make them soft and workable.

However, ever increases regulations against such volatiles may make true carnuba waxes either very expensive or even unavailable. This is one reason for the increasing availability of synthetic waxes, or "sealants," or "protectants," or a rose by any other name. These seem to be easier to apply and a bit more durable, but to some eyes at least, have a "harder" or "colder" shine than the "warmer" more "wet" look of a good carnuba. Thus one trick is to apply a base layer(s) of a synthetic wax for long term protection topped off by a layer of carnuba wax for that Nth degree shine.
