Subject: I have only used Zaino on Bettie from when I first bought her

She also has jet black paint and I used the Zaino kit to wash, clay, prep and polish the paint. There were some swirl marks and ight scratches on her paint too, and the zaino products do not take them out but they do fill them and conceal their appearance to the point that I was no longer motivated to work on taking them out of the paint.

If you use the steps from their web site, you will not be disappointed in the result, I am sure of that. There is no benefit to adding wax on top of Zaino. Their whole philosophy of using a polymer polish to create the shine instead of waxes indicates this isn't what they would recommend. Both ploymers and waxes can create a great shine, but using both doesn't make sense to me.
