It didn't work for me, so I got some more cleaner/wax. I have some nasty spots on the bumper cover and hood, which someone got on my car. The cleaner/wax takes them off with a LOT of elbow grease. The body scrub was a strange color and did not even put a dent into the stains. The only things I haven't tried is straight cleaner or the higher end products. The cleaner wax is unusual in that it does leave a wax behind, and the car will bead water nicely. I guess it must be a cheaper wax so maybe it doesn't last as long as a Gold Class.

You probably need a stronger cleaner to get rid of the damage. Meguiars Fine cut or Medium Cut cleaner would be the next logical step. That should take care of it. If it doesn't, then go to a heavy cut cleaner. Follow the directions carefully though. Good luck.

Shake it up!!!

The body scrub needs to have the living **** shaked out of them to get the abrasives to mix in. The abrasives settle to the bottom and are tough to mix in. With out them in the mix the scrub is worthless.

smokin dem bugs

I first clued in to Zaino on this website a few weeks ago. Did my own rE-search. The product seemed a little overhyped, but ordered a kit anyways. Used it today for the first time, and almost fell off my knees when I started using the claybar to take off bugs and grease. What is this stuff?? It works like magic. bugs and grease are attracted to it with almost no effort at all. They virutally slide off the car like a puck slides across ice. The rest of the Zaino 3 step treatment took most of the day but the car looked way better than showroom. I'm sold and would recommend Zaino to everyone
