I'd place it more in line with a product like NuFinish. BTW, According to Ziebart's own literature, it contains neither Teflon nor silicon. If you like how Ziebart sealant looks after a year you will like how NXT or Zaino looks.

Here is a 16 year old daily driver that has been detailed every 3-4 months and sealed with Meg's NXT polymer sealant. Notice there are no swirls. I spend about 4 hours every 3-4 months to detail this car.




There are no products that look as good a year after they have been applied. In fact appearance begins to deteriorate after a few short months. Durability and appearance life depend on several factors including where you live, drive and the environment your car is kept is in. Take your black car out in the sun and look at the finish from a few angles a few months after your product has been applied and tell me there are no swirls. If you objectively look at the paint you will conclude that it will look better after the detail than it did before. That said, I'm **** about the appearance of my cars and would never let it go for a year.

What is the "Zaino" product for the interior of the vehicle (i.e. Leather, carpets and plastics)?

Your help is greatly appreciated.
