yup actually a lot of people prefer Z5 by itself on black. They are the exact same product except Z5 has swirl filling properties and is a tad less "optically clear" according to sal.

here is my recommendation, get Z5 and ZFX if you want to save some $$$. Z5 is just like Z2 except it can fill minor swirl marks. ZFX is needed because that is what allows the Zaino to bond to the paint surface (like a 2 part epoxy type deal). If you want to save even more u can get Z1 instead of ZFX but i think the ZFX is worth it because it is much easier to use. Good luck!
