Has anyone used hydro with Zaino? My MINI is a daily driver and I don't often get the time to give it the all the detailing I want. All the raves over Hydro got me wondering if using Hydro after the occasional wash would keep the shine going. And when I get the time for more Zaino application will having used Hydro be a problem?
I had this same question since I use Zaino but wanted to try out Hydro for its ease of use and all the hype on this forum about it. So I did...I've been using it for the past 2 months and am very happy with the results. Car looks awesome!
I don't know that you could go back and put more coats of Z2 on it and it'll bond. I'm just planning on using a paint cleaner when I want to do Zaino all over again, but my MINI is also a daily driver and Hydro makes it look so good and it's so easy to use that I might just stick to Hydro for a while longer and do Zaino like 2 a year.

I asked Heather this before, and the answer is yes.
As for applying over hydro, you might want to be sure the hydro has gone away before applying a good wax (zaino, epic, or any of them), so wait a few weeks, or use a paint cleanser or polish to start from scratch.
I wonder if zaino Z-AIO will remove any remaining Hydro.....z-aio is zaino's paintcleaner/polish/sealant....and then put the usual Z2 over that
Do you mean if you already have Hydro on your paint and you want to use Z-AIO (and then Z2)?
If so, then I'd say that the Z-AIO will at least wear down the Hydro. If the Hydro is fairly fresh, then less so and if the Hydro has been on there for a bit, then more so and perhaps all the way.
To guarantee removing the Hydro before starting a process like this, I would recommend wiping the paint down with rubbing alcohol (avoid your trim). Otherwise, it's hard to say for sure.
