OK, What Zaino??? Went to there site and there is the all in one but the Z2 pro is made for clear coat finishes and can be built up for shine and the deep look.
Now I am confused.
Any help on this one?

They offer a mild polish, an all in one (AIO) someone already mentioned which is a polish/finish coat combined, clay, a couple types of finish coats, and at least two quick detailers.
Their products are not waxes but presented as being polymer coatings. In my experience, they last much longer than any waxes I've used.
The process for applying them is to remove old waxes (they recommend washing the vehicle with Dawn dish washing liquid), clay bar the paint, polish the paint, and then put on one of their finish coats either for clear coat or regular paint. They offer an additive for their finish coats that is supposed to help polymerize the product to make it harder and more durable. They advertise that you can layer up to three coats on the first day but then you have to wait if you want to put on any more coats.
I did this process to my car three years ago using an orbital polisher for the polish step. Since then all I've done is wash it and spray a layer of one of their detailing sprays (Z-6 or Z-8) after drying the car. The car still looks great. Road grime and bird droppings do not stick to the paint or stain it.
I bought the bike new and did not machine polish it. I just went over it with a microfiber towel and hand polished all the painted parts and then put on several layers of their Z-2 product on it. I've used the Z-8 after washing just like on the car.
I'm very satisfied with the product.
I do think a good wax looks a littler better for a show type car but it is not nearly as durable (long lasting) as the Zaino product.
