I don't think Scott was saying one was better then other there 2 different products it would be like comparing apples to oranges..When applying any product you should apply a thin coat as possible then reapply the EX again to assure even coverage..Good luck

Thanks Joe ... exactly correct, you cannot compare two different breeds in that manner.

OIC.....I've heard Zaino mentioned a million times but never knew exactly what it was or used for.

Zaino is a paint sealant like Wolfgang and UPP. It has been designed to offer superior durability. The original product was plagued with plasticy and sterile looks. The Pro line erases all that and quite good. It does need a catalyst to be added (Z1) or mixed (Zfx) to bond correctly and offer the best durability and gloss. The line is designed towork well together, and does so. I found the polish slightly stains rubber surrounds, but cannot complain on most of the Z offerings.

It is ashame that Sal doesnt want AG to carry ... sure would look nice next to the best wax (Pinnacle). In a perfect world you would be able to buy ALL products at AG. Maybe we can add Duragloss, Finish Kare, and some others as soon as the bigger warehouse is done.

why wouldn't someone want to sell their product where it would actually sell? Hmmm.....something I don't know? Just seems odd....

Purely a guess :

Marketing -- trying to keep the product small, in fresh batches, and sold by smaller distributors that can be controlled. Also pricing and discounts could be a factor.

Remember both AG and Z would want to make a profit, and offering the forum discounts is something most manufacturers need to come to term with as their other distributors are likely to complain they cannot sell that low and keep their overhead. Could AG sell enough for Z to make profit and cover any lost sales from a smaller distributor that cancelled his next order ?? Likely but a leap of faith for the manufacturer.
