Finally gave in and ordered and used the Zaino. However, to me suprise the Z5 and Z2 didn't come off that easy manually. I would have spend 2 days taking it off. Lucky for me I had my trusty orbital polisher. Took me 7 hours to clay, Z1, Z5, Z6, Z2 and Z6. Here are some pics. I also did my calipers this weekend. Couldn't wait for PolaK caliper stencils and came up with some of my own:D

Car looks great, but if zaino was not coming off soooo easy you couldn't believe it compared to regular waxes, you didn't apply it properly. A little goes a long way! Less is better. If your unsure its completely covered, because its so hard to see, then you did it right. If you see a thick haze everywhere, then you used way too much. A half oz or less will cover the entire car.

If your Zaino didn't come off with a light buff from a clean cotton towel -- you did something VERY wrong when you applied it. You car looks nice -- but don't blame the Zaino -- read the instructions

Yeah, I agree. Zaino comes off very easily. something's not right there.

Looks very nice although IMHO, you should have waited the two days for Polaks stencils...

Zaino goes on in very small amounts, it should wipe off in one or two wipes without a ton of effort or pushing. On my silver RX-8, I can barely even see that I've put any zaino on the car..

I think you're just appplying too much.

Polak's stencils are taking more than 2 days to get here. I ordered them Wed and it is now monday and nothing. But I might change the calipers once I get them. As far as the Zaino, thanks for the advice. I'll keep that in mind once I apply it again. As far as the instructions, at least the ones in the bottles it self, it doesn't say anything about how much to apply. I had used wax before, like turtle wax, Kit and others and I never had this problem. In the end, what matters is the results and I got them with Zaino.

I can second the observation that Zaino is hard to remove when you put too much on. It took me about four coats to get it right. These guys are right: it's really hard to see when you're applying it in the right amount.

Speaking of misapplication, I have been using the bottle spray (Z6 I think) liberally. Like 4 full shots for the hood, two or three on each side.... My bottle is almost empty now. So I read the directions, and they want you to use very tiny amounts of it, just like the zaino... a dime sized amount per sq foot. doh!

At least it's not hard to wipe the spray
