Mackie, as I told you before. Very nice. Just be sure to match your tires' shine with the rest of the car. I hope your car's still this pretty for our Sunday cruise.

Man, I haven't zaino'd my car in such a long time. I need to do that though. You should come do mine. I'll uh.. change your avatar? haha

What exactly does that mean?

Did you have swirl marks and scratches. What did you do to get rid of them?

Looks good Mackie, maybe you need to drop by and do my Z and S2K before I sell it. And yeah btw I think I do have a serious buyer for it.

Thanks for the heads up! I think the 35% look perfect. Not too dark but not bright red.

OH SNAP!!! hahaha... Jim's right though, you can't see it.

Mackie, drop by my house today and do my car too. I got all the Zaino stuff, except the spray because I ran out. I don't think the carnuba's necessary though.

I was going to ask how long this took. Definitely would be a longggggg time if done in 1 day.

Nice job! Upkeep like that is required with black paint. Looks sick...
