Zaino doesn't suck but there is better waxes/sealants out there I'm remember the first time I used Zaino on my old truck I wasn't blown away but after I put like 3 or 4 coats on I loved it so try a couple more coats so try again so you didn't waste your $75

Zymol is not that good. It doesnt last very long at all.
Klasse on the other hand is good. I have 2 coats of Klasse on there and then half the hood has a coat of a different Klasse product. I am in the middle of doing a product test.

What kind of condition was the paint in before you applied Zaino?
If there was alot of swirls, scratches and oxidization then Zaino will do very little for your paint. You'll end up with a smooth, slightly shinier, swirled, scratched and oxidized finish.
Zaino is non abrasive so it won't get rid of swirls, scratches & oxidization. Now Z5 has some fillers to hide minor swirls and scratches but it's non abrasive so it won't remove them. It's not a miracle product, I don't know of anything out there that is, it's just a good polymer sealant.
I think Zaino works great and is very durable.
The key is to prep you paint by removing:
contaminates - Clay bar
oxidation, swirls and minor scratches - paint cleanser/swirl mark remover or something stronger.
before you add any sealant or wax for the best, reflective finish.
Here in my truck after using a swirl remover, glaze & carnauba wax.

Thanks guys!
The pictures were taken after 6 hours of doing a full detail on it, long day but well worth it. It looks better now then when I first got it!

Zaino rules. It makes my white truck look like a mirror. It's all in the base coat. If your paint doesn't look good before Zaino it won' tlook good after. I'm going to be doing a complete color sand and buff on my truck one of these days, and when I do, pics will be posted. I'll show u guys just how good white can look.

I used 3M SMR followed by Clearkote Vanilla Moose (both applied with a Porter cable random orbital polisher), S100 Carnuaba wax and finished with Quickshine detailing spray.
Any swirl remover will work you just need to make sure to break down the abrasives so you don't get any hazing. If you plan to do it by hand Meguiars #9 followed by #7 work pretty good. 3m products are a PITA to breakdown by hand. Now these work good for light swirls and scratches you might need something a little more aggressive like Meguiars Dual action paint cleaner, for deeper ones.
As far as keeping it clean a quick dust with a California duster and quick detailer if needed. I usually go about 2- 3 weeks before I have to wash it and usually because the kids make a mess on the inside.
Good luck
