I'm using the Poorboy's right now and am very happy with it. Only thing I've used that has given me absolutely no sling-off. I've used the Zaino in the past and have been happy with that as well but if I remember correctly there was a little sling-off at times. Either would be good choices IMO if you're looking for a semi-low gloss dressing. Neither are too glossy but can be a little brighter with a second coat.

Zaino does not sling - I am very picky about that and since my GX is white I would see it if it did. I apply it lightly with an applicator sponge from Griots Garage then go over it again after doing each wheel with just the sponge to even it out. Perfect after that!

If you are in a rush, apply a light coat and wipe the excess with a towel. That works too


Agreed. Apply the gel and let it sit overnight and it'll just sit. I LOVE the Endurance Gloss!
