Zanio is a very good synthetic wax. However, I use Klasse AIO & SG. It is a two-step procedure but it lasts more than 3 months.

Synthetic waxes last longer, are easier to apply and are much better these days in terms of shine and jetting.

Carnauba waxes still give better depth and color clarity and have the best jetting.

I used to detail cars by appointment during high school and would do a lot of high end exotics. If you have the time and are devoted you should use a Carnauba wax like P21S or Zymol, etc.. You'll have to apply it once a month and it takes a long time.

I'm much too busy so I go with a synthetic wax. It's about 85% of the shine but it should last between 3-6 months depending on your climate.

If you don't want to spend Zaino money I like Klazze for light color two stage (solid color, non-metallic with clear coat) paints. For darker colors and three stage (metallic clear coat and silvers) I really like Mothers reflections. It has better depth.

If you have the cash go for Zaino or my favourite and the one I used on Mercs, BMWs and Porsches was Menzerna FMJ. It's German and is just amazing but it costs
6 times more than Mothers.

I use Klasse. A bright shine and it lasts. Have to get it online as it is hard to find in the stores.

I use this stuff called "Worlds Best Wax". It's pretty good stuff but it cost a fortune.
