Zaino Dealer in the GTA

I've read the threads on Zaino and you guys have me convinced. I have never used this type of product before and would like to find a good dealer that can help me along and obviously sells Zaino.

I live around the east side of downtown and work out by the airport. Can anyone recommend a dealer they like in either of these areas?

I've seen the recommendation about the guy in Oshawa but was looking for someone closer if possible.

Thanks for the help

Taffy

Good choice. Zaino rocks, and it's all I'll use now.

There is only 1 authorized dealer for Zaino in Canada as far as I know. The website is

www.zaino.ca

They are actually Crown Auto Emporium in Guelph, but who cares?
Just use the form on the website, order it up, and it will at your door in a couple days.

There is a guy called Homer2 on the Canadian section of the S2K website, he delivers. You can also purchase Zaino at any Barber's Chair franchise in a major GTA mall.

Thanks for the responses. I'm looking for a detailer in the GTA that could help me with the Zaino products.

I think that I remember reading that you had a detailer clay your vehicle. Who did this for you?

Thanks for any help

If you have the time do it yourself, it's easy.. Just make sure you work in small areas and the paint that you are claying is always wet. Once it becomes smooth move over to the next section while making sure the piece of clay is not contaminated with dirt.

You know after sanding my paint with 2000 grit sandpaper, I now realize how strong paint actually is!

Hell I used like 400 grit on my subaru with no ill effects! Just make sure it's wet and you'll be golden

The detailer that I used is one of the best in the GTA but unfortunately they do not use Zaino products. They clayed both the body and the windows in addition to tinting the glass, they did an absolutely first class job!

The name of the company is Autobahn and they have been around since 1991. Expect to see a lot of high-end cars there if you go. If you are interested give Frank Duarte a call at (416) 739-0001.

Autobahn
4646 Dufferin Street
North York, Ontario
M3H 5S2

Tell them that the guy with the blue RX-8 recommended them.

Edit: Added phone number

Apparently it is a very common practice. They also mentioned to me that they had to do the glass several times in some areas to get it just right.
