Well it's been a couple weeks now and I still can't wipe the huge grin off my face every time I drive this beautiful car

I posted some pictures up in the other forum, but since others posted their pics here I guess it's ok.

I plan on taking some better pictures soon... was raining all weekend so I couldn't do it this weekend... but soon

BTW I had just "Zainoed" it so it looks pretty slick as well

Great pics Jamie. If I hadn't liked the Vista Blue so much I would have definitely gotten Tungsten.

My Zaino's kit should be here before I get my car so I'll probably be waxing it this weekend.

That colour looks really nice in the sunrise(?) in the first pick. Very nice selection.

Oh yeah, I meant to ask how long it took you to do all that? Did you claybar it?

Thanks guys

It was sunset... I'm going to take some somewhere where there are no other cars around when I get the chance

Leon it took a loooong time heh. I didn't claybar it basically because I felt the paint and it was already smooth as glass. But after I washed it, then did the first coat with the Z5... then buffed, wiped down with the Z6 detail spray... then did another coat with Z2 and buffed, wiped down with detail spray it took about three hours. In between waiting for it to cure I did the inside and all the trim and tires with the leather / tire stuff.

I also used the Z2 on the wheels and it really makes them shine

I've used Meguires forever... I've used nothing but that on my '91 Mustang and it still looks pretty sharp, but I wanted to at least try the Zaino stuff and see how good it really is.

As far as I can tell the shine is very similar to the Meguires. But from what I understand it lasts longer... so hopefully it will do just that
