Zaino tips and Picture I was talking about this weekend.

Few things we were talking about at Mike's house. Here are the wheels I want and here are the Tips for using Zaino.

For the treatment :
First I would wash the car with Dawn dish washing detergent, this will remove wax and dirt. Then clay the car (Z18- $16.95 for two bars). Use the clay bar with plenty of soapy water (the Dawn again) to lubricate it, wash again and dry. With the blue I would rub down the car with white vinegar, just soak a rag and wipe, drying with a clean soft cotton towel this will remove most water spots. Then Polish Lock (Z1- $8.95)you do not need to let this dry, followed by Polish (Z2- $12.95) or if you have swirl marks or fine scratches Polish for Swirl Marks (Z5- $16.95) Z2 and Z5 are compatible and can be used over each other Z2 shines a little better, and Z5 fills in small scratches with a few coats. Let dry for a couple of hours and wipe off, no buffing required. Drying time will be determined by how much you use, the thinner the better, I do a mustang vert with about ½ oz, and the temperature and humidity. When you wash the car use Car Wash Concentrate (Z7- $7.95). Anytime you would like to “spiff” the car up, and before applying another coat of Polish use Gloss Enhancer (Z6- $9.95) I have attached the Zaino Tips. Z1 Polish lock should be used every 10 coats of Polish or every 6 months. You will notice a difference in the shine at about 5 coats the car will appear to be wet all the time. I know this seem confusing at first but it becomes easier with time. The additive ZFX ($19.95) when mixed with the Polish makes it dry quicker and eliminates the need for Z1.

why get new wheels when you're just going to sell once you get the 93 "presentable"???

I never knew that you could apply Z-5 over Z-2 and vise-versa. Course w/my paint I'll just stick to the Meguire's NXT, I'm sure with the 80 mile roundtrip to Sam twice a week I'll get plenty of rock chips.

Use a bra, they really do help with the chips on the front end!

I did going to Georgia and back....but still had a ton of knicks in the hood. I can't wait to get a beater and put the miles and wear on that instead of the Cobra.

No, we were just talking about wheels and I mentioned those. I'm not sure on the brand, but I think they are BBS. Yes, you are right, I may be ditching the '03, but it doesn't change the fact that I want those.

Thanks Keith, That is one sick looking 03..I love those rims in Plasma or Silver.. If by chance you keep the 03 and you want to buy my 00' R rims they are for sell if you want them.. I think they would look really good on your Sonic Blue..

My dad was talking about getting a bra for the 03 but I talked him out of it. I just dont like the looks of them with a bra, but if you do a lot of daily driving (which a lot of you do) I am sure it would be a must.
