Dan, you guys are not that far from me. Should make a road trip some weekend to meet up with you guys. I am only a 3.5 hour drive from T.O.
This winter I'll visit a friend in Windsor, ON and another in London, ON. If I'll see your car anywhere, I'm sure I'll recognize it!
Unless you're planning to keep it in the garage during the snowy months...

your car looks amazing great shine!!
i have used 4 coats of Zaino on my first Stang, and now that I have the second I will be using the Meguires NXT and will be able to compare them side by side.
I love the Zaino--but I hate ordering it..I like to be able to run to the store and pick up the Meguires...

Well I drove it this winter but I think I will store it next winter now that it is lower. Also by the time I get the Street Scene kit installed the front of the car would act like a snow plow

That sounds like your asking for a sympathy round from US

Me, ask for sympathy, never, but, I might need a place to stay once my street scene kit shows up.

John,

This may sound like a strange question, but did you claybar your stripes as well as your paint? I just finished my stripes this past weekend and this Saturday the Zaino is going on so I'm curious to know what you did icw the stripes...

BTW, your car looks awesome :worship:

Actually, I did claybar the stripes on the back of the car because they had brake dust or something on them and the claybar took them right off. Worked really well. However, I didn't claybar the stripes anywhere else. No harm in doing that if you want to.

I added some pictures to my webpage showing my car with a nice clean shine. 3 coats of Meguiars NXT. I love the stuff. I got a ton of compliments at a show this weekend on the nice shine. Granted it's only an 04GT but you get the idea.

here is a pic to show the amount of reflection I currently have. After a few more coats it should be better.

Just out of curiosity, why do 05 owners put GT 350 on their 300hp 4.6L cars????


Car looks great BTW. I love the color and wheels.
