I disagree with the plasticky look about Zaino, try their newer products of AIO and CS, also Z-5 and Z-2 have been reformulated. At the same time, it's different strokes for different folks.

I have both formulas of all the Zaino products, including the Pro formulas. After using high-end carnaubas, such as Swissvax and its Cleaner Fluid, Zaino still looks plasticky. I'm in no way saying that its not a great product. They are great products that give long lasting durability. But, I agree that different people have different perspectives. That's what makes a great conversation/debate.

Zaino does seem to have a bit of a plasticky sheen, that's why I use UPGP now. Superior to Zaino in almost every way and it's not as plasticky. The price seems to deter some people though, but a little does go a long way.

Bold statement. I've used UPGP once and like it. It did look very shiny and not plasticky. I agree that a little goes a long way too. I see this customer often and it seems to be holding up very well after 3 months now. It supposedly will last longer than Zaino too. I just didn't want to bring up other products as the OP only asked for Zaino vs WG
