(More customer reviews)I used to use the Zaino system on my car and after multiple coats it had a wet mirror finish that reflected clouds. But not everyone has a lot of time to care for their car. So I decided to try this cleaner wax. It is very easy to apply, easy to remove, produces a nice shine, cleans the paint a bit, and is priced amazing low. If you don't have a lot of time to spend on your car, but you want it to look good, get this stuff. Get the car out of the heat of direct sunlight. Wash your car with dawn or some other dish soap (without the moisturizers for dry hands) really well and then dry it. The dawn will strip off the crap that is on your car. Then get a clay bar with some spray lubricant and clay the whole car. The clay bar removes tar, bird spray and other nastiness. Run it over those nasty areas until it picks up the nasties. The secret to having a car look good is removing ugly spots before applying wax. If you wax over sap or other stains in the paint, you are just locking them in and the wax is not going to cover that up. After you clay an area, wipe it down carefully. Make sure you don't have any water spots before you apply the wax. If so, you may need to re-clay those areas to see if it will come up. Now if you have lots of swirl marks and holograms in your paint, you are going to have to polish it to remove those. In that case, I wouldn't even use this cleaner wax. I would step up to a nice orbital, some good polishing compounds, a sealant and then a wax. We are talking $$$ and a good 10 hours of labor. So if you've got swirls, and you don't have the money and time to properly do your car, just stick with this cleaner wax and the steps I've provided and you will at least be protecting your car from further damage. Again, this stuff is great for people that want to protect their car and make it look good without spending tons of hours and money on products. So go ahead and wax once your surface is clean. Use a nice microfiber pad. Wet it with the lubricant from the clay bar just to keep it moist and then get some wax on it and start waxing. Don't apply too much and work it onto the car. I left mine on for an hour or so and it was still really easy to take off. I would do the whole car and then remove the wax all at once. You want to use a microfiber towel to rub it off. You can finish up by wiping it down with one of those spray detailer bottles. Now that you are done, don't use dawn on your car. Use car washing soap that is safe for waxes. Otherwise, you will strip the wax right off. Keeping the car inside and out of the rain and sun will make the wax last longer. If you get 3 months out of a waxing, you are lucky. You can tell when the wax is wearing off by how the water beads on the car. No beads=no wax. The car also feels less smooth as the wax comes off. You can reapply this wax every couple weeks if you want. But you should occasionally remove everything and reclay and start from scratch. Oh, and the most important thing to remember when washing/waxing your car is to always make sure you don't have rocks or anything else that can scratch the paint in whatever towel/rag/sponge/pad you are using. If it gets dropped on the ground, it probably has a rock in it and you'll end up scratching the paint instead of protecting your car.
