Zanio confusion!
Ok, so I've read a bunch of post on this cool Zanio product but I am still lost as to how it works. My main question is do I have to wash my car before using Zanio? And if so, when I am going to wash it for the second time do you wash the car again? I understand the different coats you apply and the more you do the better it looks.
Also, to apply the Zanio stuff do you use the little towels they sell? And after you are done, do you dry the car as well? I know this might sound stupid to some but I am confused and have a dirty RX-8 that needs some cleaning!

1- wash very well with dawn.
2- Claybar the entire car, very important to get it smooth.
3- Wash again, dry car off.
4- Spray/clean with detail spray, Z6. Makes zanio apply better
5- Apply first coat of Zanio, a very light film is all that is needed.
6- Buff car off with 100% cotton towel, should wipe right off easily.
7- Spray/detail again with Z6, always use inbetween coats.
8- Apply more zanio, very light film is best.
9- Z6
10- Repeat, etc.
I don't think I missed anything, oh yea, remember to do the wheels also. Helps fight break dust from pitting the paint.
12 pack of your favorite ice cold beverage is also helpful

Yes.... Wash with Dawn only once. Prior to starting the Zaino. Then after that only use Zaino for best results. The Zaino car wash actually contains polish in it also.

oops, I didn't mention which wash to use after the claybar.
Probably would not hurt to use dawn again but the directions do say the zanio wash. I have found it is very important to use the detail spray inbetween coats, makes it go on much easier.
I also very lightly dampen the applicator pad with the detail spray.

What do you use to apply all this stuff? I know the cotton towels is for drying the car... but what about when using the dawn and etc? Do the little cloth things Zaino sell any good? Sorry I am a newbie when it comes to this stuff.
