OK, I'm confused -- I hear all of this GREAT stuff about Zaino, which has NO wax in it at all.
Yet, I've seen some folks in this forum referring to this Car Care Online site with tips about caring for your paint, and it says a number of times that
"If you are using a polymer based wax on a German paint and have hazing or clouding of the wax, about the only thing that will work is to strip the polymer wax and rewax with a Carnauba based wax. German paints hate polymer-based waxes."
They also say that polymer "waxes" (which contain either no wax or a blend of carnauba wax and polymers) tend to last longer but they cloud more easily.
(PLEASE SEE THE LINK BELOW TO SEE THE ACTUAL ARTICLE I'M QUOTING).
So, should I used an all-carnauba wax, or a blended wax, or something with no carnauba wax at all, like Zaino?
Maybe this Car Care Online site is just full of sh*t?
Sounds like everyone seems happy with the Zaino, though... I'm really tempted to buy it!
I wish it was available locally, though... I want to wax my car this weekend and I don't want to wait a week or two for Zaino to come in the mail!!!

and then applied 2> I was satisfied with the results. I use 6 from time to time and get very good quick results. Thanks again for the great info.
