Yes Joe, Dawn dish detergent is what Zaino suggests for stripping the wax off the truck, without being too harsh for the paint.

 

Oh jeeeeez. I talked to RobG a while ago about what exactly to get and he told me This. I had asked because on 3M's website they list like 4 different hand glazes.

Now I am even more confused

8ntfstnf, I also use the Liquid Glass. Best stuff out there IMO. I get tons of compliments and questions as to what kind of wax i use, because the shine and reflectivity is amazing. But it actually contains no wax at all. 20 bucks for a can is alot, but worth it. It actually bakes onto the finish. Good stuff, Good stuff

 

Joe,

The 39007 & 05990 is the same stuff. 39007 is the consumer packaging and the 05990 is the commercial packaging. There's no optical difference to the two glazes.

The hookers say it tastes great and is less filling...or something.

 

I thought they were the same even though different part numbers. Below is a photo of my truck from using Zaino last year and I think I'll call Sal at Zaino and see what he says about using it with the 3m hand glaze.

it is if you are using zaino! zaino rocks the body that rocks the party!

 

Another Liquid Glass fan here! But my lazy *** hasn't used it in 6 months. I think thats about to change

 

Liquis Glass the whole way. Im with Gator though, have'nt used it in months.

 

Make sure that you aren't applying too much. It doesn't take much to do the entire truck. Also, never swirl this stuff - always use an X-pattern with a very soft cloth. Any marks in the paint will magically disappear. I find it best to put on a light coat of wax on the truck after removing the 3M.

 

ROB are you crazzy!!! Letting those Hookers sit on your hood. Well its your hood. I myself wouldn't let anyone sit on my hood..... unless I got a new one out of it.


Oh and Zaino you can apply it in direct sunlight. Although you have to use more of it.

easy on easy off, no worrying about smears, getiing it on the plastic parts comes off in a snap. Easiest stuff IMO.

To each his own.

 

I took a week vacation a few days after I bought the Lightning in 99 to do the full Liquid Glass treatment.

It's more of a hard sealer than anything. They say to remove it, you have to use mineral spirits. Apply a nice wax on top of that and you've got glass.

I applied 8-10 coats 3-4 hours apart on the entire vehicle(I used 5 bottles). Best thing I ever did for my truck.

*Dawn dishwashing liquid works well to remove some old wax, but a good paint cleaner will get the rest. It's an extra step, but well worth it, IMHO.

Rob:
Nice hookers, man...

 

I'm kinda confused.

I have never used Zaino, or Liquid Glass. But after seeing some of your trucks after you used these products, I have been tempted. All I have ever used is the good old tried and true three step system from Meguires. But I substitute the Gold Class paste wax instead of the deep crystal carnuba liquid for the last step. I then hose down the truck with Mother's Showtime detailer spray with a final buff and Voila!!! My question is. . .can the use of these other products (that seem more difficult to use) produce a better look than the Meguires/Mother's combo?


I mean, if using Zaino or Liquid Glass makes hookers want to sit on your truck. . .then I guess I better switch. The only girls that wanna sit on my truck don't put out. . .

The only 3M product I use now is the light buffing compound. It makes a mess, but works good on those damn water spots, scratches, etc. I used it on the L prior to the Zaino to get the paint as close to perfect as possible. Zaino is the way to go in my book.

 

Keep in mind that the 3M Handglaze is a polish, not a wax. It's to buff the finish of the paint, and then you apply whatever wax product you like after that.

As for WrongDayJs question, I personally have used Mothers, Meguires, Liquid Glass, Zymol, and pretty much every other detail product there is on my vehicles over the years. In my opinion, Zaino products blow them all away. But you have to learn how to use them. Zaino products are NOT waxes, but special products that are chemically designed to work with each other and your paint finish. It takes some getting used to using Zaino stuff because they don't follow some of the guidelines we've all learned over the years for wax. Of course it's all personal preferance, but hey, you did ask .
