Is Zaino products only available from the Zaino Bros, or is it sold elsewhere?

Zaino Bros should have a list of distributors for your area. Distributors hav product readily available. However, Zaino Bros ships pretty quickly.

I'd like to go get some tonight, but the Zaino Bros web site doesn't list any distributors. Do you know of any?

I just got a response back from Mr. Zaino. There's no distributors in the PHX, AZ area... bummer.

Zaino store or 888 number only.

He turns around the orders MAD quick (such great english there...). They try to ship the same day the order is received. Go for it--you will not be disappointed.

Yes synthetic. SO FREAKIN' SHINY!

As far as my experience has gone... nothing happens when you get it on the trim. I don't have any white residue whatsoever.

OK, now I'm a Zaino-Head. Just placed my order for the ZKIT-1 kit. I feel guilty spending that much moolaa, but after seeing the consistent high quality results on everyone else's MINI's I just had to become one of you. Yes, I have been assimilated by the Zaino-Heads.

Hey Dominic,

There IS an older guy who lives down by South Mountain who resells Zaino for Sal at Zaino Bros.....he's got a large stock in his garage along with a MCS and heavily modded Miata....he's also trying to fabricate lots of little accents and parts for the Mini....anyway, I'm in Kansas City still but when I get home this weekend, I'll send you his info. Really nice guy and very helpful when I was first starting out with Zaino.

That's very odd. Because as of a week ago, Zaino said there was nobody in the PHX area. I'm going to email grswensen@earthlink.net the message Sal sent me and see what he says.
