Default First Coat of Zanio on QikSilvr

I told my sales rep, no auto car wash, no wax.
He hand washed it and kept the keys to prevent pre-delivery wax, so I had a "virgin" coat of Zanio today. More on the way.

I did "Dawn" it before the Zanio.
I used the Zanio on my vette and I really like it. I hope it holds up as well on this one. I know it is a polish, as opposed to wax but a new coast every month or so did well on the vette.

Actually it's a polymer sealant they call a "polish". Just put 2 coats of the Z2 Pro and topped with P21S on our Matador Red 350 today. Looks great
A coat of the Zaino should have no problem lasting up to 6 months

I use Z-2 Pro on my silver ES and just love it. I think you will be pleased. I would highly recommend you "quick detail" a layer of Z-8 on after every wash. It will stay looking sharp.

Post pics when you have a chance!
