Alright so I have approx. 10 coats of Zaino on my car...and the water just beads off when I wash it.

Tomorrow I plan on taking all of the Zaino back off, and restarting using their new paint stuff.

How do I get the Zaino off that is on the car now? Detergent wash?

Thanks, Scott.

 

Good ol' Dawn dishwashing liquid soap. Use 1 to 2 oz per gallon of warm water.

 

Just wondering, why take it off and start over ?

 

Z-PC is an abrasive so it would just break the other coats down, but I would just rather get the older Zaino off before I start with the Z-PC.

Ohh, and thanks adrenaline...just wanted to make sure.

 

I just removed 3 coats off of my 06 gt with dawn and it worked great.

 

Per Sal Zaino when I asked him this same question.


There are many commercial body shop products that are specifically
designed to remove polish/wax to prep a surface prior to painting. Isopropyl Alcohol will also remove Zaino.

 

Kind of harsh, but when I had my vinyl dilema, I used Naptha on just the rocker panels. That might be too much for the entire car. But, my vinyl stuck like a charm!!

 

The iso alcohol isn't too harsh. Only the areas of where the vinyl's going will be wiped down with the iso alcohol..

 

Naptha works great for everything witout harming the paint. Chear by the gallon also
