True..as per Zaino instructions. He must not have experienced the power of the Zaino.

To the OP. Zaino instructions state that no more than 3 coats of either a combination or otherwise of the Z5 and Z2 should be applied in a 24hr. period due to the necessity of the coats to truley "set". How long did you do these in? P.S. I can't see the pics because my job blocks photobucket..


P.S. Zaino also recommends the Z7 wash after the clay step.

Looks good! I use the Meguiars Gold car wash and get lots of compliments on it. It works awesome, and I bought the jug of it like 3 months ago, and after 12 washes, it still has like 3/4 of the bottle left.

Wipe a portion of your car down with rubbing alcohol and watch all the fillers in Zaino disappear.

Wow. Now that I'm on my home cpu I can see the pics. Looks great. Nice job. Makes me wish my Z was black...nothing beats black when it's clean. Nice touch on the wheels.

Im forced to put shades on in fear that I may go blind with the excess of UV rays beaming off of your car

Good work!
