Thank. Good info. Dan.

Corey, First, thanks for the great feedback. My question isn't theoretical. I have undiluted Perl on my tires right now. It's a great dressing. My order with UTTG, UIGP, and UPGP should arrive tomorrow. Now I just have to figure out the right combo for me. Regards, Dan.

Will Perl or UTTG damage a wheel sealant like Zaino Z2 or UPGP? Thanks, Dan.

I'd like to get these. However... I use a sealant (Zaino Z2) on the wheels. I use a sponge applicator to apply dressing (PERL, with UTTG on the way) to keep it off the wheels. Should I be concerned about tire dressing overspray on the wheels? Thanks, Dan.

I agree, most people are fine with it. But some tend to get their panties in a knot when Zaino is mentioned. Dan.

Zaino Z2/Z5. Of course, it's not sold by PBMG. That may be a problem for some folks here. Dan.

Bump... Enquiring minds want to know!

Just to be sure... That is the native 4-3/8 backing plate. Yes? When and how much for a set of 6 pads? Thanks, Dan.

PakShak. Excellent Korean microfiber at a very good price. Regards, Dan.

I use Zaino Z7 wash mixed in a spray bottle. While the car is still wet after washing it, I just spray on the Z7 lube and go for it. It works well, rinses completely clean, and is dirt cheap. When I finish a panel, I rinse the completed panel, wet down the next pane, spritz Z7, and go for it...

All is well. I had a couple of tiny scratches and a sore shoulder. Not bad for being T-boned by a pickup doing 30 MPH. Audis are built pretty well. The new Audi is a mixed bag. It's a bit faster and handles a bit better than the old one. But the fit and finish is not as good. I don't like the...

Typo in the post above In the post above, it says, "...it's never been washed...". It should say, "...it's never been detailed...". Regards, Dan.

The order with UPGP should arrive late this week, so probably next weekend. The target of this test is my 2011 Audi bought last summer. Except for washing and a little Z8 on the hood, top, and trunk lid, it's never been washed (too busy with the house remodel). It replaced a 2002 Audi because...

No, you haven't missed something. I have. After Zaino hazes over and is removed, you can walk away or reapply another coat. But I just learned that yesterday after using it for 8 years. That info is buried in their application notes. (They have good products, but a mediocre web site.)...

You understand that products listed in the survey are all PBMG products, don't you? For durability, Zaino Z5/Z2 are probably the best of the non-permanent LSPs. If you spray with Z8, protection will probably last indefinitely. Whether it gives you the look you want is another issue. I have a...

Brian, It sounds like you need a stronger pad/product combo. I like Zaino products, but ZPC is not a strong polish (I'm assuming you're using ZPC). A pad with a stronger cut will help a lot though. What pad are you using? For polishes, I'm a fan of Menzerna. Menzerna SIP (IS1500) is a great...

See my post above. I just got them, but I immediately retired my old wheel brushes. They are excellent! Combined with my new Swissvax brush, they are far better than anything I've ever used. Regards, Dan.

I have several OXO brushes that work well. Dan

Looks like the title didn't say it all. :poke:
