One step polish/wax recommendations

LeonardS · 11-08-2023, 11:57 AM

I have done the 50 step Zaino process on my other cars, but I’m not up for that on my 24. The last Zaino products didn’t seem to work as well as what I had remembered from prior vehicles. What products have you found that are easy on, easy off with a good shine? I don’t mind doing it every month or so, if necessary. I also need a product for the 1LE matte hood. Thanks guys!

Wax? They still make that?

Ceramic coat and a good detail spray is the way to go.

Adam’s ceramic and graphene CS3 is my go to on my car and DD truck

I have yet to try it, but 3D Speed looks really good. Will do some light correcting with a machine and cleans up really easily. Has wax in it as well. Might test it out next spring.

Thanks for the tip!

Klasse All In One Is a good product, especially if you need light paint correction.

Leonard, I'm like you, I've used Zaino products for years, but it's a lot of work to add all those coats. Most people are going to ceramic coatings now. That's what I've done with both of my Camaros. I did start both with clay barring the car and using Zaino All In One on the car before the Ceramic coating. Then I've been using Turtle Wax 53409 Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray Coating as a top coat over the ceramic coating. I really like the Ceramic Spray. It's easy to apply and not very expensive. Here is a link to it.

Have you tried the 303 products? I've used them for about 5 yrs. on all my cars and SUV. you spray it on and wipe it off. Then if you need a quick shine, they have a 303 for that. The polish wax is kind of gray/black so it's easy to see. The quick shine you'll see the slight haze. I go over it with my Cailf. duster and I'm ready to show it or race. Looks good at the night get together too. Rain does the little bubbles of a good wax job.

I love this product... TEC582 Ceramic Detail Spray.

https://adsco.com/products/tec582-ce...spray-1-gallon

You can apply it after a wash, even when the car is a little wet, but I usually dry the car first with my drying towel, then go around with this spray on a MF cloth, and a second MF to finish... and the results are like being in a showroom. I also use it on my wheels and calipers.

303 Graphene Nano Spray is a simple one-step coating that looks great and is easy to remove. It tested pretty well in a torture test on YouTube and outlasted most of the other more expensive brands. You can get it at most auto parts stores for less than $30
