Removing surface protectant??

I have decided to use Zaino on our vehicles and was wondering whether anyone out there is familiar with Liquid Glass. I have been using it for the past year and have 2 or 3 layers of it on all three cars. It is a synthetic polish, no wax, which is easy to apply, and gives a nice shine but I am curious about the Zaino. Although the Liquid Glass lasts several months, I have heard that Zaino is better. And better means less work. Since it is a synthetic product,as is Zaino, will the normal Dawn wash remove it? Would also like to know from some Zaino users whether a Dawn wash strips the Zaino off.

A medium polish and detail clay will remove any selant.



I have also heard people use prepe sol.(autobody wax remover)

You can use prep-sol to remove Zaino, but a bit of detailing clay and/or a paintwork polish/cleanser would be the best way to go.

Dawn doesn't remove Zaino. It removes waxes and oils which are important to remove before you apply any sealant.
