Inexpensive but effective cleaners:

Zaino is not a wax, it is a sealant. Waxes and sealants serve the exact same purpose - protection and shine. Sealants are just the newer technology, and the good ones also leave behind a slick anti-static surface. For the basic Zaino kit all you
need is the "triplet" package, which is zAIO (your first cote), z8 (second cote, and quick detailer), and zCS (top cote):

Of course, once people start using Zaino they usually end up with the rest of the lineup: z2, z6, z7, zFX, etc.
Waxes are really a matter of personal preference. I've used Dodo Juice in the past, its great stuff (it even smells good), and DetailedImage.com now carries their lineup.

If you really want a slick looking car, get a claybar. You can put $0.99 turtle wax on a perfectly clayed car and it will look great.
I should also mention
www.detailersdomain.com I've never purchased from them, but heard good things. DetailedImage and DetailersDomain are both active on these boards and offer discounts to 1addicts - do a search for more info.

zAIO should go down before z7 b/c it has the best bonding properties :wink:.
