i never use dish soap on my car

3M GPAC does it for me, or you can use a paint prep. then a good clay bar session.

Nice ride by the way.

Meguires is great. The problem with it is it takes a looong time to apply. Zaino on the other hand does it quick. It will take you 3 times as long with Meguires than with Zaino.

Another cool thing with Zaino is, no matter how many coats of Zaino you have it will NEVER look bad. Actually, the more you put on, the better it will look. This not true with any other exterior car treatment. Like car wax from Meguires for example, after about 3-5 coats of it, it will start to look bad OR the extra layers are useless cuz it has gone to its limit. Some wax after 3-5 layers will start to look foggy.

I am unable to keep my ride in a garage and forced to park on gravel alley way. But really like the idea of this zaino stuff.

Think it would be ok for me to use for a outdoor car that lives in a dusty alley?

the main reason why i wax and wash my car is to protect the paint. making it look good is a bonus for me. so no matter what, wash and wax is good, regardless on location.

i dunno why the pics didnt pick it up, but i have tons of rock chips on my hood.

honestly i dont kow how to hide them...my guess would be use touch up paint for it, use black wax to wax it...then do all the zaino stuff.

we are having another Zaino Session this saturday...ill get more pics up.

When you get your car painted or buy a new one, invest in a clear bra. That will take care of the paint chips.

Or now, if you touch up all the chips, you can still have a clear bra put on it.

woobiee · 04-23-2004, 12:21 PM

yeah i knew about the clear bra...but unless i get it repainted, i think its not worth gettin a clear bra
