First off, I'll admit to being a Zaino convert. I use it on 3 cars & will use it on the cobra when it arrives next month.

I haven't found the process to be that lengthy and I think it's a lot easier to put on & polish off than a paste wax. I've got a somewhat bad back that makes bending down low for any extended period of time on the car fairly painful and the zaino is fast enough to put on and off that it's only about a 1 beer back ache.

I've seen the tests where the shine from a really good paste show wax with a lot of carnuba in it is compared to zaino and, while it's matter of personal preference, when I look closely at the pics, it's pretty close. The thing I like about zaino versus a carnuba wax is that it lasts for so long. Most waxes are essentially gone within a couple of weeks of fairly steady driving and/or a few washes (even with a good car wash detergent). The zaino seems to stay on for months.

But everyone should check out those tests and make their own decision. The zaino seems right for me.
