No. I meant Zaino Bros. This is from 2004. Think it's still good?!

I haven't seen any updates with their product. I'd expect something to be a good product, if you see professionals constantly reviewing it. I haven't seen one person review anything from them.

What’s everyone using for a vacuum?

Also, recommendation for a gentle leather cleaner? (Had the whole interior coated in Modesta fwiw.)

Thanks guys.

Despite requesting a “no wash” note on my service profile, the dealership washed my car when I had a tire replaced and everywhere I didn’t get PPF (went with the track pack, rear fenders, and roof) is now full of swirl marks and outright scratches. Furious.

Vacuum: 16-gallon Shop Vac from Lowes -- with a 20' hose.

Leather care: Used Leatherique for years. Began using Leather Masters Dye Transfer Leather Cleaner; good results. Now using Colourlock leather cleaners (light and heavy), foaming applicator, and soft-bristle brush (sourced from Obsessed Garage or Detailed Image). Note: I applied CarPro Leather ceramic coating upon taking delivery, so regular cleaning of light dye transfer just takes a couple squirts of light leather cleaner and some brush agitation to remove any/all discoloration.

Oh -- and get yourself a "do not wash" sign to hang from your interior rearview mirror.
