Default Zaino Problems.........

I can not seem to get the Z5 to come off without leaving an oily residue on the paint surface. I followed all of the steps on their web site and according to them it should just wipe right off. I let it dry overnight in the garage where the temp is about 55-60 degrees. What could I be doing wrong?

How long does it normally take to dry? It has been sitting for 24+ hours.....

Default I have never had a problem removing any of the Zaino . . .

how much did you use? Did it just wipe on pretty clear? You don't need a lot of the product.

I wipe the Z-1, Z-2 or the Z-5 onto the car. By the time I have finished the last bit of the car I begin to wipe all of the Zaino off beginning with the first section I did. The entire procedure for me takes anywhere from 20-60 minutes. 20 when it is below freezing and I am rushing to 60+ when I take my time and enjoy the process.

Zaino says it depends on humidity and temp... I oft times let dry overnight.

I agree. And finishing off with Z6 usually removes any residue anyway and buffs to a nice shine.
