Default Nothing but the very best for my new 24 RG



Kidding, kind of. I have cabinets full of newer technology, more expensive, imported from Germany, ceramic infused, yada yada yada. But when I wanted something easy to just clean up the paint and put a good shine on it, the ole trusty going on twenty year old Zaino All-In-One called my name.




I’m sure in the future I will switch to something more modern but for now, this is all she needs. I think a part of the charm of using these old names is the nostalgia. I can still remember how special it felt having to mail or phone order this stuff before they had a website. Using it makes me feel young again.

Next will probably be one of the Polish Angel sprays.

Congrats man, love that color.

How you like the AMMO stuff? Been wanting to try their coating

What????? I do not see any Zaino C-CS Clear Seal in there. lol

I use the Clear Seal on all my vehicles once the paint correction is done with Zanio All in One. Easy just wipe it on, let it dry and gives a great shine.

I have recently gotten into detailing, I must say I am envious of your cabinet. I just have one hanging on the wall with to much stuff in it, but after seeing your cabinet I think I am going shopping now. 😁

Thanks! I really like the color too. The AMMO stuff works great but it’s hard to justify if you need anything bigger than 16 oz. I haven’t tried his newest coating but the original Reflex was easy to use and looked great. Probably not going to last as long as some of the heavy hitters on the market though. I enjoy supporting Larry so I keep buying.

You know, it’s interesting. I’ve been trying the CS since it came out and while I can appreciate the idea, I’ve just never really been able to get it to work as advertised. I always end up with spots that need buffed after it’s had time to dissipate. Probably user error. Maybe I’ll give it another shot since I’m using the AIO as a base.

The rabbit hole is deep. Very deep. Not shown are the other cabinets with towels, applicator pads, polishers, pads, brushes, et al.

The hole is so deep you cant see the bottom.

Ive been on a Phoenix EOD kick lately. Their Apex wash is right up there with Reset. I have a new bottle Of Kamikaze ISM to put on the wife's black CTS as soon as its not 1000 degrees.

Looking forward to reading how you like the new bike.

Respect. Every time you open that cabinet you should have a bright light come on and a recording of a choir singing

Thanks man. It does make a noise when I open it. It goes "cha-ching".
