I just picked up my '06 black GT vert last week, and want to get some quality wax on it right away. I have Zaino products 1, 2, 6, 8 and accelerator, but would like to know if they must be applied by hand or can I used a ROB to apply and remove / buff. Any advice would be appreciated!

You may use machines to apply/buff off Zaino, however you will use more and perhaps waste product. Excellent results are achieved by hand with Zaino products. Use your Z2pro with the ZFX, use Z6 between coats and finish with Z8. You will be amazed at the results. I see you have black paint. Take care to use the correct toweling on your pony. See the Zaino website for an explanation on towels. Good luck! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumb.gif[/img]

The results are amazing if you follow zaino's instruction.

The key is applying by hand and using quality towels [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumb.gif[/img]

There is no substitute for elbow grease. Do it by hand, it will take 2 days, but it will be worth it!

Let me add this...apply very THIN coats of Z2, as you apply Z2 you should barely see anything on the paint, if this is what you see, you are doing it correctly. I would initially do 2 coats right away, with Z6 between coats. Check your progress and hit her with 2 more after that. You may continue to layer Zaino to your hearts content. Also, you will not need to use ZFX every single time after your initial application. I would say every 10 coats thereafter to "tighten up" the bonding of the Z2 to your paint. Your mileage may vary depending on if the Mustang is garaged all the time or not as well. Its addicting, so watch out! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen.gif[/img]
