SO today before raining/winter season,

I decided to clay and rewax my car.

I have had my previous cars (350z) professionally detailed before but since the car is 9 months old i used a buddies supply instead of spending the 150 for an exterior detail.

My buddy had ordered the zaino car kit, so i wanted to give it a try and review it.

i used the clay ZAINO Z18 to strip oxidation and the old wax, and we added a coat of the zaino mixture with a quick detailed. (z-2 and z6 gloss)

i also purchased some Meguirs Gold Class paste wax, which i am going to add sunday after it rains!

PICS BELOW ARE FROM CLAYING/GLOSS/POLISH. Will add pics of wax later!

This stuff is amazing and easy to use.

Claying took about an hour for the whole vehicle (REMOVED A LOT OF ROUGHNESS AND MADE IT SILKY SMOOTH), then the mixture took about 30 mins to apple, 30 to dry, 2 coats so far,

I am going to add 2 more coats then apply the paste wax.

I spent about 4 hours doing this with my buddy, in the garage.

amazing results, gave my liquid platinum g some shine

if you guys get a hold of some zaino it is highly recommended, way better than anything targer, kragen or walmart sells! AVOID THE WHEEL CLEANER ITS TOO STRONG AND CAN CAUSE DAMAGE, theres other threads and posts on that....

overall this is some of the best product i have used with amazing results. well worth the money for those looking at detailing supplies!!!

Gold class car wash is the shampoo i used, bets stuff ever!

hope you guys enjoy!

 

Looks great

 

Nothin like a clean ride. Lookin' great

Have you ever tried Adam's undercarriage spray, it rocks for wheel wells.

 

^no i havent, where do u get it from?

 

Nice job man.

 

just added a coat of wax pics soon

 

Nice I feel for ya that you also have a mini van though

 

^thats at my parents house, she stays rockin the vans. i told her to get a g sedan or the new fx50

 

from Adams themselves, who I believe is a sponsor here. adamspolishes.com

You just spray it on your undercarriage and wheel wells and forget about it. Returns the deep dark black look to them.

 

HAHA ya just poken fun. My wife is looking at the new FX50S will get it in march if we don't sell our house. Nice detail job man I have just started the winter months here in Edmonton so it will be like 5 months of a dirty G.

 

Haha, im in san francisco so just rain and fog. my friend is selling a house and looking at the c-class, g37 sedan, and mini coop (random), but the housing market is so bad.....i just added 2 coats of wax to my car so im ready for anything winter throws at me.
