I used Zaino for years and wxed over many vinyl graphics. Never a problem and It
won't leave that white film on the edge where the vinyl meets the paint. I say go for it but if you want an 'Official' reply why not email Sal Zaino and ask? I believe
you can find his email on the www.zainbros.com website. Good Luck!

Yes, you can wax them. Care for the stripes the same way you'd care for your paint. I use Zaino, which has a UV protectant in it for those long Arizona summers. Just don't use anything that would be course like Turtle wax or something.

i heard u cant wax then add vynals

yeah you cant. gotta put stripes on first with no wax on the car, then wax the car and stripes together, i think cause the vinyl wont stick properly to the wax.

When I had some vinyl done on my last car, the graphic guy called me and said "what do you use to wax this car?" and I said, Zaino. He said it took him 4 times more work to get the wax off than any other car he'd ever worked on. He complimented me on the amazing shine, and asked if I could give him the number so he could call and order some. I took that as a pretty big compliment since he is the best graphic shop around and works on many hot rods and custom cars and trucks.

I dropped the Mustang off there today as the stripes are going to be installed tomorrow. I told them right away, I haven't waxed it yet so you won't have the work like you did before! I'll wait until after the stripes are put on for the Zaino treatment
