I apply my Zaino by hand. There is a HUGE misconception about it being too much work. That is not the case. I'll always be a Zaino buyer, because the stuff works and works well with using just a little amount.
I apply my polish by hand and I use he cotton applicator pad that is on the website. I always use Sonus microfiber towels to buff off. For best results, after polishing with your choice of polish,...finish it off with the Z8 Detail Spray and you will have a shine that longs A LONG time, even if it's your daily driver, and a shine that will be UNBEATABLE! Once you place your order with Zaino, they send out a step by step letter to get that killer shine. If you have any questions as to how I do it,...you can pm me and I'll gladly answer your questions.
If interested, I can show you a couple pics of truck and car after being Zaino in this thread. Let me know.
