Zaino (possible) Group Buy

OK guys let me first start off by saying I am in absolutely no way affiliated with Zaino whatsoever. With that said, their products are literally second to none. For those that haven't heard of them or previously used their products, they specialize in cleaners, waxes, sealers, ect. Basically all the things to keep your ride looking (better than) new.

I spoke directly with Sal Zaino and he said that he has done group buys in the past but truly shys away from them now. He said no matter what you do, someone always wants more and cries about it. I continued to beg him to see what he could do, and he told me to throw this on here as a feeler. I though we could unquestionably get well over $1,000 in orders (I alone had over $130 in my cart last night). I don't have a firm answer for you guys as of right now as to what they are willing to do for us. I will not take your responses to the bank, but rather a good consensus of the demand we can bring to the table. Once I have a good idea of what people are looking for, I will call Sal again to see what he is willing to do!

What's really great about their products, while somewhat pricey, they last a good long time - like years and years as it only consumes such a small amount for each application. So taking that into consideration, their products are a steal. Here is their website and I encourage you guys to take a look and read reviews (anywhere on the web - as they are overwhelmingly positive). Zaino Store

I personally am in for: Z-AIO, Z-2, Z-5, Z-6, Z-7, Z-9, Z-10, Z-12, and ZFX.

Let me know what you guys think, and lets see if we can get this thing going! :hungry:

PS - Here are a couple pictures of the FAST results of their product (spent way less than an hour). All I used was a buddies Z-AIO and Z-CS. This got my pallet wet to really do the job right (see above at what I'm ordering)! :wow:

Looks great man. Just bought some more meguiars polish and tech 2.0 wax, but I'm always interested in some new stuff. See what he can do, and I may be able chime in and get some stuff
 
I'm partial to Optimum, Duragloss and Pinnacle myself. What are you using for a machine? I just went from a PC 7424 to a Flex 3401 and couldn't be happier. It's the perfect medium between a DA and a SA. Have you tried Opti-Coat yet?
 
I might very well be interested as I have been thinking about returning to Zaino from Meguiars. I'd be interested in the ZFX, Z2 PRO, Z3 (for another vehicle), Z5, Z6, Z7, and Z18.
 
I have an interest in this.

I need to learn more about the product and process to understand the benefit and time requirement.
 
With a group buy discount I would accelerate the purchase of the following items and perhaps take a closer look at some additional Zaino items...

  • Z-7 Show Car Wash
  • ZFX Flash Cure Accelerator Additive
  • Z-2 PRO
  • Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal
Toyota 4Runner Detailing



 
Why is this in the 5th gen section? Share the love, man!

Hey RipCord I am about one notch smarter than Forrest Gump when it comes to posting stuff :shrug:, so if you could let the other forums know about this group buy I'd really appreciate it!

No I haven't tried Opti-Coat yet but have a buddy who uses it with great results! Just IMO, nothing has been as easy to apply, as fast to apply, with the best results I have ever seen (those three things are critical to me!). (see my comments below about a machine)

It will definitely take a half hour of your time, but really read through Zaino's site. They do a great job explaining the many different routes you can take and also the varying levels of protection and gloss that can be had with just a little elbow grease. Which brings me to my next point... All of their products are designed to be used WITHOUT a machine. You certainly can use a machine should you please, but in no way shape or form do you need to!! :boink:
 
Would definitely be interested as long as the order was placed before June 20. Their products are amazing! Used to use this on my civic, and the gloss and water shedding are second to none. They last for a solid 6 months too!
 
I would have to look through current stock of what I have but I am a regular Zaino user on the T4R and the 330xi. I am guessing that I could use a restock on at least a couple of items. Probably not $100 worth but probably $25-50 depending on what I need.
 
It's great to see we have some interest growing! For those of you that are waiting on what the discount/offer is, I unfortunately really don't have an answer for you until I can give Sal a rough idea of what we are looking for. So take your time, explore their site and see what makes sense for your situation. I will leave this open for another week or so before I get back to him. But in all likelihood, with what we have now will not yield any offer from Zaino. Let's see if we can really put something together here fellas!! :hungry:

Thats about $80 of product. This may change as I research it more but from what I have read this is the products I need to use.

I will be working on the finish July 4th week (have to look good for the FJ Summit) so the timing may not line up. I would need the product to arrive before then.

Hey Desert Fox this is exactly the type of post I was looking for people to submit. Let's keep this up and get some more interest! As mentioned, I will leave this open for a few more days and will then call Sal with our tentative results... :bigok:
