new paint care

[appletree]

whats the best way to look after new paint. Polish/Wax??? what makes??

[maxfield]

zaino c76jons the expert he can tell you more

i think it is important to let the paint brethe for a little while before using any product, i tihkn it tends to be a few weeks, your sprayer should be able to tell you

as for after that period, then i would go for zaino or meguiers, depending on teh money you wish to spend and the time your willing/able to put into it

If you have just paid for a respray get the Zaino, anything else would be a false economy in my opinion, it will make your paint last much longer than anything else. I am sure c76jon will echo this thought and recommend what to use.

agree with billgates, let the paint harden before you start applying layers of polish etc......well thats what my bodyshop told me

the bloke whos spraying if said it would be as hard as it was going to be by the time i got it so i could if i wanted polish it. but he said that he would also polish it before i got it to finish it off

[appletree]

What garde of Zaino would i need? or would it just need a protct rather than a polsih as it new paint and your not having polish it to get to the good paint??

[billgatese30]

zaino have a wide range of products, only one is abrasive (zpc) tghe rest are sealants and enhancers, gte some p1 primer, some z3 , some z6 or z8, and then some zaino car wash (z7 i think)

z1 is a primer and will allow the z3 to work correctly, this must eb used to get a good finish

z3 is the sealant, and is what will give you the protection and the shine

z6 and z8 are gloss enhancers, z8 is better out of the two, but also more expensive so it depends on your budget

z7 is their car shampoo which will not strip the product off the car when you wash

I see has anyone got the link for the zaino website i've lost it.

Cheers.
