It's not a car; it's a lifestyle

Some of us got into a conversation about car wax products and clay barring and such.

The totally awsome, no ruboff wax I was talking about is available here.  

http://www.zainostore.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=Z-CS

Yes, it is expensive, but it gives you 24-48 coats of wax so that reduces the price to a dollar a wax job.  

You can read the information on the product.  I have found it to be a great fast wax that protects for 6-9 months.  I tend to wax more like once a month or even more frequently simply because this is so effortless.  Simply spray 1 pump onto car.  Use a damp cloth to spread it at far as possible (slight iridescent residue shows coverage), then walk away.  Works on the plastic trim, windows, over decals.  It is extremely clear.  If you end up with a foggy appearance you used too much and just rewipe with a damp cloth. No white wax in the cracks and pits and no waxy residue where you bumped into the black plastic.  

Personally I frequently clay bar after washing (takes 10 minutes) and top off with this wax (for another 5-10 minutes), then take a nap.  

If there is interest in a claybar teaching school, someone suggest a place with some water and I can give lessons.

Here's some reference info on waxing your car:  Mother's - Wax FAQ.  Waxing as often as once a month requires harsh outside conditions.  If you garage your MINI, or you don't drive it daily, waxing that often can be overkill.  I realize the ease of it, but a good frequency is 90 days.  That's how often I have to apply the product I use.

I could not find any reference info at the Zaino website, so you may want to consult with them to determine the best waxing frequency.  Let them know where you live, weather conditions, road conditions, garaged, how often you drive, etc.
