Yes- the kid's radio flyer wagon got a coat of it last weekend!
I actually do have a tin of it in the corner just to let the kids detail their stuff while dad gets busy on the grocery-getters. And I used to be a Zymol addict as well but was always frustrated at the lack of durability (but damn it looked good after a water-mist wipe!).
The carnubas hide a multitude of sins (read: no polishing required to remove all the swirl marks) but just don't last and won't protect your stuff from bird s*** acid like Zaino will (I know this b/c a bird shat on my BMW and ate thru the clear coat that was Zymol 'protected'. Got hit a year later by a flock of seagulls and *no issues*).
If your reflection is marred by sunswirl halos, you need a date with a PC 7424 and some SMR (swirl mark remover- used 3M b/f Zaino launched ZCP).

There's no such thing as a lifetime coating, no matter what anybody tells you. I've never seen any paint protectant last longer than a year. And most will last less than 6 months.
All colors of paint need to be polished and waxed. Even white looks much better with a good detailing job. White can get dingy after a while.
I've owned 17 Porsches, 22 Ferraris, 10 Lamborghinis, 5 Maseratis, 55 Rolls Royces, 44 Bentleys, and 1 Tacoma, as well as many other automobiles and. Oh, I also own a 500 ft Yacht! This is the only forum I belong to. All the other ones seem like a ****-measuring contest. People here are much more humble.
I just got some Jeff's Werkstatt stuff in the mail yesterday,( http://www.jeffswerkstatt.com ), haven't had chance to use it, hopefully sometime next week when the rest of my supplies arrive.
I've been using various products by Poorboys, Clearkote, and P21S with great results, though as expected with a carnauba, P21S has no durability, but it does look fantastic.
Never tried Zaino- sounds like a good product. The longest lasting wax I've found to this point is Malms. I went through a winter in Minnesota with salt caked on the truck every week and the truck still had a shine in the spring. By the way- I used to think I was psycho for all the time I spent detailing my truck. After joining this Forum, I realized I didn't even hold a candle to some of the detailers!
Zaino rocks...I use it on both vehicles (White). It seems to be the longest lasting protectant I've used so far. Others I've used in past years were, Meguiars, Zymol, & Liquid Glass. Liquid Glass holds up pretty long but was a real PITA to remove.

I used to use Zymol( smells good, makes me want to drink) and The Wax Shop products but now I only use stuff from http://www.adamspolishes.com/c-12-detail-kits.aspx
their stuff is a bit pricey but it works wonders. Zaino sounds like it works good as well I'd like to try it some time. Is it available only on line or can it be found in stores? Can't say I've seen it anywhere

The only place I've ever purchased it from was this site: http://www.zainostore.com. I've never seen Zaino products in retail outlets; however, some reputable paint shops may sell some of the products. When I run low on the stuff, I place an online order and it's usually at my door in about 3 business days.
