Zaino Z-CS - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So I bought this product off the recommendation of one of my friends. He has been cleaning his Z06's (yes plural) with products by "Zaino" for years. I was really impressed by his "leather in a bottle" product. I got back home and researched Zaino. I ordered a product called "Zaino Z-CS" this product goes on after wax is cured and it comes in a spray bottle. You literally only have to use 10 sprays for the entire car and you rub it on with an applicator pad that is provided. There is no wiping or buffing. After it cures the paint looks insanely wet! You guys need to try this! It is worth its weight in gold!

You car looks great! I have personally never used Zaino-CS but I have used Optimum Opti-seal and Blackfire Crystal seal which are essentially the same type of product. They are super easy to use and add great protection if you use them after you have just washed and dried your car. These types of products don't get much attention though because people believe that they're snake oil since they're so easy to use. It's good to see someone using something different for a change.

Been using ZAINO products for at least 15 years, They are one of the best around.

Dude, it doesn't matter what the paint looks like, those wheels are killer!!! They make the entire car really stand out!

But that is a nice shine on the paint.

I love these wheels man! Absolutely beautiful to me. Alot of young guys hate chrome. How could you? We have baseball, apple pie, and muscle cars with chrome wheels in America!

did you apply it over another Zaino product or something different? I'm a collinite fan and have everything waxed with it. Just wondering if this would add any benefit

matthew9440 · 05-01-2015, 11:17 AM

Yeah I use a carnauba first and wait till it cures and then apply zaino cs

I use zaino's Z6 detail spray. It works well, also had a good smell to it. Kind of like candy.

Mr_Draco · 05-01-2015, 12:05 PM

I use Zaino Z-2 and the Z-CS and let me tell you, three coats of Z-2 followed by Z-CS makes the paint pop and shine like nothing else I've ever seen or tried, even Adam's doesn't even come close. What is really great as well is the durability of Z-CS. I've not waxed my car in over 7 months and it still beads and repeals water.

Z-CS can be applied over top any other wax or sealant, just make sure you allow it to cure first before applying Z-CS.

Thanks for the heads up about this product. I ordered some and it arrived today. It works!!! Here are my results..

Botrod · 05-07-2015, 02:34 PM

I used it on top of collinite today and was happy with the results. It was shiny to start but this made it seem a little "wetter" to the eye.

After polishing, how long do you wait for the "cure" before using the CS?
