Has anyone tried Zaino Z-8 Grand Finale Spray Seal? Is it noticeably better than Z-6?

Zaino Z6 I used for quick detailing. Like when drying a car to prevent streaks or after a quick drive to remove dust. I mostly used in when layering the zaino sealants as well. The Z8 I found to be a nice product but not as amazing as many claim it is. On black it added a nice finish but it was only marginally better than Z6 IMO, and I like the smell of Z6 better. On light cars a QD spray of any kind adds to the finish just a tad. If you want your car to look its absolute best and dont mind spending the money sure add Z8 to your arsenal. If your happy with Z6 than stick with it. Its more than half the price as well.

Smoke is right, Z6 is not the same as Z8.

Z6 for wipe downs after a wash, Z8 more for use as a spray sealant.

Z8 however does leave a nice slickness for about 2-3 washes, I also think it has a nice look.

Z6 is an excellent quick detailer

Z8 is an excellent quick detailer plus it will actually add a little polish to the cars finish helping extend your Zaino's life. I use it after washes and as my final coat whenever I apply additional coats of Zaino. It really makes your finish pop. The best way I can describe it is it is like a spray on glaze that goes on last. LOVE IT.

For the ultimate finish I always top my Z5p or Z2p with Clear Seal which is a true spray on walk away sealant and then after the CS dries follow it with Z8

bump - anyone else has experience with Z8? I have silver car and wasn't sure if z8 over z6 will have noticeable difference. I can perhaps see for black cars...

Thanks!

With a silver car Z-6 should be fine. It would be hard to see the difference.

Z8 adds protection and gloss, but has less cleaning ability than Z6. I like them both, but after a wash, it is hard to beat Z8.
