Zaino Newb. Which ones to buy?

ok. Damn. I went to Zaino site for the first time in my life
and saw all this ZFX, Z2, Z5, Z6, Z32730927403758035......

Im lost.

Which ones do I need to buy? I thought I would just buy the
package kit which contains everything.. but Honestly don't want
to spend $85 bucks for car care. I love my E90, but weather here
aren't very conviencing.

Let me know which ones I "really" need.

I have Alpine white car, so I don't really worry about swirls.

Thanks guys for helping my newbie butt out.

For you- Z2, ZFX, Z6, Z7. that's it.

You don't need the clay bar-(if you really insist, get the clay bar by 3M- cheaper and better)

You don't even need z6 (quick detailer) and z7 (car wash). You can use alternative car washes and QD's if you like.

All you really need is z2 and zfx. That's it.

If you want to go the Zaino route without spending a lot of money I would go with DavidN's suggestion. If you want to buy something local that also works well with a similar shine try Mothers Synwax FX. About $12 a bottle. I used Mothers clay bar also and use Meguiars GC wash, all available locally at a good price. I've heard the FX QD (spray wax) is also good but have not tried it.
You may want to check out the forums at mothers.com or meguiars.com. I have been very impressed with the new generation synthetics OTC.

I went with Klasse products and mother's clay bar. Very happy with the all in one product and glaze/sealer.

lux.sh - much like yourself, got confused on the zaino site and decided that the multitude of products and effort was not worth it.

I used to be a Meguires carnuba addict, the new synthetic stuff is much easier to put on!
