Picked up some Zaino Tire Shine from Bill Burkholder at today's show....I'm very impressed with it....the best part is that it didn't sling all over the side of the car during the drive home;bt

And the Zaino Z-5 polish seems to work well on the hood too....

I like it for that reason as well. It seems that no matter how lightly you apply the other brands you get that splatter or "sling".

Bill,
There were a couple of corvettes with NJ tags parked around me...discussing Zaino and such....and they were talking about only being able to get Zaino from the webstore or distributor...I directed them over to the gleaming white FRC & your table...glad to hear you had a successful day of it!
Tom
Bill, Glad you did good. ;) Will call you when we get home, it will be in the next few days. :)

Carl,
When is Sal going to start offering gallon bottles? At least on tire shine it would make sense.

Mark, believe it or not you are the first person that I ever heard of wanting a larger Z-16 bottle, I just used my second bottle of Z-16 since I started selling Zaino. I hear that larger Z-6 & Z-7 maybe in the works, along with a few new things. ;) Mark, Sal called me while I was posting this and said that Z-16 will be offered in a larger size, probably 1/2 gallon refills if I was to guess. Just ask and it shall happen. ;)

Carl,
"just ask and it shall happen" bring all kinds of ideas to mind.

I have been pushing him to bring out larger Z-6 & Z-7 bottles for almost 10 years now.

Remind Sal that Meguires, Adams, Griots, etc offer all their products in gallon refills. I've bought some of Griot's stuff (sorry about that) and it works great, and I saved some cash. Why should I have to pay over an over again for spray bottles that still work fine but have to throw away? Can I return them for credit? Also, most pro detailers won't use anything they can't get in bulk.

I sell to over a dozen pro detailers, and 5 car dealerships, and when I say pro detailers these are businesses with commercial buldings, not part time detailers. I really do not care, maybe Sal does what other wax companies sell their products in and in what sizes, Ardex and United Chemical sell products in 55 gallon drums, should we do that next? You can go to Chemical Guys or Warner Chemical and get many of the products on the market even cheaper, if that's what you want to use. ;)

Carl,
Love the Zaino but it seems silly to be throwing out spray bottles all the time. With 4 cars of my own plus those Glenn and I detail, I go through quite a few bottles of each item on a regular basis. This won't stop me from using Zaino but it sure would be nice to get at least the high use items in refill sizes.
Many thanks,
Mark

Mark, most of our (Zaino's) customers use a bottle or two of Z-6 or Z-7 a year, of course this is not everyone, but I would say 50% of my customers purchase once a year, and 30% twice a year, and then there are people like you and me that have several cars and use more, but believe me that is not average. Zaino many years ago, probably 12-14 years ago offered larger refills in Z-6 and Z-7, they did not sell and that is why Sal was not quick to start the larger sizes, that was before I was selling Zaino. :)

The only bottle they ever seemed to make bigger was the ZFX. Didn't put any more ZFX in it, just made the bottle bigger...
Maybe that's expansion room for when it dries up.. ;)

More so you could grab hold of the vile, the smaller one was way too small, only a few of them were ever sold. We have replaced about 26 ZFX's since it came out, about 80% of them were from defective caps that had no, or broken "O" rings, pretty small percent when we sell about 100 ZFX kits every month, don't know about the factory. :)

Thanks guys. Now I got one more product I got to try. I had been using Stoners on my tires.
I could almost open a Pep Boys store with inventory of waxes and polishes and stuff in my garage that I had to try. Karl is Zaino comming out with any new stuff soon?

Norm the ZCS (clear seal) is great!!! I have used it on my car and love it. Wipe on walk away. Hit it with Z-6 and it looks great...

I already got three coats of ZCS with Z8 layered on top of each coat. The only thing I don't like about it is not having to wipe it off...that just seems weird.

I know Norm... The first time I stood there with a towel in my hand but I quickly learned that a beer will work better in your hand than a towel:D

Norm, we have several items we have been testing, we just never know what order or when they will be on the market, believe it or not Clear Seal was tested for 8 years before it was sold. :)
