Zaino may be excellent for some, but for my Nemo Blue I found a real magic product: Sonax (long)

Don't forget the language is called English, so I figure they should know how to spell it.

Default Andre-did you remove the dealer applied wax before you applied the Zaino?

I have the Ebony Pearl and have had not seen the problems you mentioned with Zaino. Before I applied the Zaino I washed the car twice with Dawn dishwashing soap (as recommended by Zaino) to remove all the dealer applied wax. Then did Z5, Gloss Enhancer, Z2 and a final Gloss Enhancer. Shines like the devil.

Default Schumacher is my all time favourite driver! I have an immense respect for his driving

capabilities and how he and Jean Todt brought Ferrari back to the top. Of course like every other succesful person, not everybody likes him.
So let's agree to disagree on that one, but to call him Satan is way out of line.

Default Yes, absolutely. That's why once the dealer's wax was removed the car looked like

a spider web in some places,as that wax was hiding the small scratches and swirls, and Z2/Z6 enhanced everything including the scratches and swirls.

Default If you believed Zaino, why would'nt you believe Sonax? There is no Silicone in Sonax - period. It is

stated so on their USA and German Website and the Sonax representative confirmed that.
By the way in Germany they are the appointed "polishers"/suppliers for both BMW and Mercedes Benz (I read that somewhere on the German website). If the product wasn't amongst the top, surely these two car manufacturers wouldn't use the stuff, specially if it had silicone, as April said, it is not compatible with their paint.
