Some pictures from my first Zaino experience. (56k death)

Ok, I wasn't sure if I should post this in Car Care, My 05/Photos of Yours, or My 05/By Color/Vista Blue... So I think I'll just post it here, and if the mods don't like it here, they can move it wherever they want.

Here are some pix from the Zainoing. One coat of z2 and a couple coats of z6 gloss enhancer. I am not sure if the dealer waxed the car or just washed it, so I washed it with Dawn to strip any existing wax, then applied the Zaino. I will apply a bunch more next weekend and we'll see if it gets even more glossy.

Please enjoy the wonderous photographs!

Beautiful!

Get ready for a "Mirror" shine when the third layer of Z2 goes on.

After about five layers, apply a light layer of Z8 sealer. The sealer can only be used on occaision, though, as it needs to wear off like a show sealer.

Thanks!

It's supposed to storm and rain today, but i'll do a wash and a few more applications tomorrow if it isn't too hot..

I haven't figured out a good way to dry the car.. The zaino site says to use cotton towels... Do they mean bath towels? I don't know about you, but any towel, even a bath towel, gets totally saturated with water almost immediately when I try to dry the car.. Am I supposed to use like a million towels when drying? hehehe...

Get a Toro blower and be done with it in 5 minutes flat.

Ok. We'll see. My mum works at wal mart so I told her to get one if they have one that's $80 or less. I could always turn it into an electric supercharger, you know.

(yes, i was kidding about that last part)
