So no one here in the Mid-A knows this mysterious Zaino dealer? And yes, I hate waiting for anything bought online, that's why I usually go for 2-Day shipping.

I love Meguiar's..

I've contacted my rep.. and should have PLENTY of supplies for us....

portion of my mail to them ...
____________________________________________________________ ____________
I am expecting around 15 350Z's with varying paint conditions including mild swirl marks. I will be using my Porter-Cable on the cars with finishes that are worse than the others. If you can spare some of your NXT wash G-12664, NXT Wax G-12718, Clay Detailing System G-1116, and a few extra W-8006 Polishing pads. If you have any #82 Swirl Free Polish that would be helpful as well.

Thier reply

Hi Michael,

We will get 3 cases of each product you mentioned below to you by June 10th.

Have a great detail day!!
____________________________________________________________ _________

... the rest was paperwork that I need to submit

We are going to have a GREAT detail day... IF

you guys make sure that you bring plenty of microfiber towels with you.

I quote myself .. to reiderate how important this is. I think that everyone should arive with thier own set/sets of Microfiber towels. You will go thru these pretty fast.

Make sure you have enough!

Completely expected from a guy who had his car washed with a push-broom.

Hey Byrnie! YES G35's are more than welcome....Bring your own towels, and if you're a beer drinker, BYOB. Directions are posted above. Hope you can make it!

I think Puria said he's coming, so you won't be the only G there.

Hey guys.....OK, if you haven't posted that you're coming previous to this post, I need to close this event. I'm out of room at my house. With one (maybe two) hoses, and limited parking I don't think we can get any more cars washed and detailed in the time that we'll have. And I don't think I can fit any more people in my house!

If anyone has a small hose on a reel and could bring it, please do. I have two spickets, but only one hose, so another hose would speed things up greatly.

Sorry to anyone who was interested but hasn't posted yet. Maybe we can do another one of these later in the summer.

EDIT: Oh, one more thing, please no crazy stuff in the neighborhood. There are tons of kids here (including mine), and I don't want to make any enemies that I have to live next to. Additionally, I may be having to shuffle cars through the day, so please bare with me if I have you move your car once or twice. Thanks! I'm looking forward to this...It should be fun. We'll have to get pics of all the cars crammed into the cul-de-sac!
