    I fully understand and am equipped to remove swirls in damn near anything. What I seek is a good product with durability to fill some swirls for when I do family/friends vehicles for free or for beers... the quick jobs that they think are easy...

    zaino z-5 has popped up in my search, and i have megs #7 and poorboys blackhole... nxt fills slightly, but im looking for what i can apply that will help me out...

    any thoughts? seconds on the z-5?

    I second the Z5p. It is also one of the most durable out of all the products you mentioned. I would apply about 3 layers and it should hide any minor swirls. It is not a miracle worker but then nothing is.

    thats what im looking for...

    if it can be a LSP as well that will cut down some... the ZFX step just throws me off... it seems so cheap and then you need to add that and you get few applications per bottle it seems... not that the price deters me, i am stocking up on many waxes to try this summer, but for the freebie jobs, id like to not buzz through a tub of SN...

    ZAINO Z5 does not fill as you would think! People are often under the misconseption that Z5 is a true filling product and it really isnt. It may contain some light fillers but IME with the product I have found it to do very little if anything for filling even fine swirls on black cars.

    If you want something to fill look at something other than Zaino Z5.

    I agree with DSMS in regards to Z5. Only the most minor spider webbing fill be filled by Z5. Apart from that, you'll need to look elsewhere. Not take anything about from a great product, but if it's filling you're after, this is not it.

    IMHE, i have not found Z5 pro to have much filling abilities..although i like the product it appears to need a less then perfect finish

    Bilt-Hamber Auto Balm fills nicely. I used some at JL's place on a black Suburban - I was impressed with it. Great product to use when the customer doesn't want to pay for full correction.

    JL will have to talk about the durability of the stuff though, I don't own any of my own just yet.
