No it is not "Officially" ok to use!

Per "JIM PEFFERS" PHD Chemistry", over 35 years in the field and still going at it. i.e.; 'Chemical Abstracts' (World wide institution!), Columbus. Oh.

Per Jim and I paraphase, Silicone and its by products do NOT damage anything, "It is the results of repeatedly using it that can be harmfull!"
That is why the spray for tires to make them shiny will eventually turn the wheels a dirty brn. Silicone does EXACTLY WHAT THEY SAY IT WILL DO, SEAL the surface- (not allowing it to breath! When it comes to CAR paint it is exceptional at this. The surface needs to breath, expand, contract and let the paint chemicals to be released through the surface! This proccess can take years!

If enough of silicone product is applied over time the results are invariable! The surface (regarding paint finishes) will do/show one or all the listed; crack, dull the paint to infinity, put a 'haze' on the paint that will have to be somehow removed. (Clay, rubbing coumpound, wet sanding, etc., etc.)

Three professional 'car show' builders/painters have all agreed on the use of Silicone! That in itself is amazing, I honestly can't believe that three or four of us would agree on anything! But Silicone I can!

There is NOT a single professional rubbing coumpound used in any body shop that has silicone in it that I know of.

PER "MAGUIRES" they use it so it makes some of their products to be applied and removed easier. Sorry Maguires, it has been a good relationship, now I will have to read your labels too.

Jim.....et.al., If a product uses any silicone in their produst- I DO NOT KNOWINGLY USE IT ON MY CUSTOMERS CARS!
I went into my shop, grabbed the first box/can that I could find and this was on the back!



This product is approved for and used by custom interior people and the airlines! Even they wont use a Silicone product!

An hour at least went by before I could finallly post the picture! Soooo, there it is, use at your own discretion!

And yes, ZAINO is an awesome product! (It was developed years ago for the Viper guys.)
