Please clarify. Did you forget ZPC (the abrasive paint cleaner) or ZFX (the Z2/Z5 accelerator)?

If you forgot ZPC, then you are fine, you can use a different polish if needed.

If you forgot ZFX, then you are still fine because you can use Z1 instead. But you can only do one layer of Z2 intead of three when using ZFX.

I think you mean ZFX Flash Cure? If that's the case no biggie - just wait 24 hours between your layers of Z2. What I would suggest is do your planned routine and finish with one layer of Z2. Then, time permitting, wait till tomorrow and lay down another layer of Z2 or you can do more layers after your next washes.

What the ZFX does is to accelerate the curing of the polymer on your vehicle and allow the immediate application of another layer. Even with ZFX, Zaino recommends you limit to 3 layers within 24 hours. ZFX simply lets you layer up to 3 polish layers in one session. If you don't have ZFX just wait 24 hours between layers for the previous layer to fully cure.

David beat me to it. Plus I missed the fact you have Z1 Polish Lok. Yes, use the Z1 first then apply your Z2.

Don't worry, you will be fine with Z1, you don't need ZFX.
