edit: if you're buying zaino i would suggest getting at a bare minimum, zfx, z2, z5, z6, z8 or you could go with their protection kit. Make sure you get some mf towels for taking off zaino.

Duhhh, looks like your recommendations were right here. Guess I went to the link too fast. But it looks like everything you mentioned is in the kit for $85. Just gotta get some towels. This seems like it's going to be a project. The website makes this stuff seem reaaaaal serious. It should be fun though on a nice day.
Thanx for your help

I think that I may be the wierdest car owner on the planet. I enjoy washing my Super Black Z. Therefore, I have no issues with washing it every week, wash & wax every 3 months and clay bar, wash & wax every six months. It is worth it!

Is it fact that all cars get swirl marks, and its just that black is most prone to swirls, or most visible to it?
Its like every decent car I see on the road, I'm looking close at its paint (my god). I noticed white has swirls too.
I think every car gets em if you don't take care of the paint. That being said, if I'm going to take care of the car's paint, I might as well get the color I want.
wadda u think?
