    i spent all day friday claybarring, then i used my porter cable 7424 and zaino Z-PC (the only abrisive polish they make) and i buffed the entire car.
    saturday i put a coat of zaino Z-2 (with ZFX flash cure additive) on, followed up with Z-6, another coat of Z-2, and one more coat of Z-6, then i put a topcoat of Z-CS on. 5 coats total.
    these pictures dont do the car justice. its amazing how clean it is. no more swirl marks and the paint looks literally as good as a new car on the showroom floor.
    im thrilled with the results, i see now why people that use zaino dont go back. you can get close to the shine with OTC stuff, but the white looks so deep! it reflects like black now. i also re-polished the stock exhaust tips.

    Very nice indeed. A couple of those would make good pics for the screen saver.

    That looks fantastic. How many hours did you put into it? And where do you find Zaino? I have heard a lot about it but have never seen it.

    coming from you..my head just got 5 times bigger, lol.

    oh and yeah, the truck pic would have been better if i looked over (it is too dangerous), i just grabbed the camera and shot it.
