Could someone recommend a wax that is real EASY to apply, but will offer a good shine? I know nothing beats the traditional wax, but time is not something I always have.

Thanks guys.

Zanio

It takes time but it's easy. check out some pics of my P5 after a couple of coats of Zaino ZAINO PICS (http://photos.yahoo.com/silver98sh)

Also check out this pic of some guy who put on something like 30 coats

Holy s**t,

That's a mighty nice shine! Is it a three-step like Mothers?

I just use good ol' Turtle Wax™, it does a great job everytime, and I'm never dissapointed!

Zaino is not a wax, but a polymer. It attaches itself to your car and the more times you apply it, the better it is.

It is a pain to do the first time, but after it is really easy to do. I used to use Mothers, but after using Zaino, it is really the best product I have used.

You can get it a Barber's Chair franchises and the Canadian distributor is in Guelph. Their web page is www.car-fanatic.com.

I would recommend trying for a GB on the products so find out how many people are interested and go from there. It seems pricy, but then again, think how much your car is worth. Have someone drive and pick it up as Guelph isn't that far to go. They are really easy to find.

The bottles are small, but you use such a miniscule amount, they will last a long time.

If you want to order in that fashion, count me in! I've also e-mailed the Canadian contact on the Zaino site to ask about pricing and delivery. I'll post whatever information I get.

Dude, read my post at the bottom of the last page.

www.car-fanatic.com

All the prices are on the web page.  This is the Canadian Distributor's site so I saved you the leg work.

Right from the web page...

Z1 - Polish Lok Cleaner &amp; Gloss Conditionaer - $15.95
Z2 - Show Car polish for Clear Coat Paint - $21.95
Z5 - Bros' Polish for Heavy Swirl Marks - $27.95
Z6 - Ultra Clean &quot;Gloss Enhancer&quot; Spray - $16.95
Z7 - Car Wash and Wax (concentrate) - $13.95
Z18 - Clay Bar (2 per container) - $27.95
314 - Custom Applicator - $4.50
ZFX - Flash Cure Accelerator - $31.95

As a minimum, I would recommend using Z1, Z2, Z6, Z18 and the applicators. The flash accelerator is if you don't have a place to do your car and let it dry for about 8 hours.

The address and telephone number can be found on the order form on the web site.

You will also need 100% US cotton white towels to use. The reason they say &quot;US&quot; is because some of the towels made in foreign countries actually are not pure and can damage your paint.
