Now I wasn't completely happy with the way Zaino looked on my car, that's not to say I don't like its ease of use and durability. I just like a deeper, wetter look. I also noticed I hadn't removed all of the sandpaper marring, so I wanted to polish again. So this time I used with Optimum compound followed by Optimum polish, then followed that with Clearkote RMG via PC on a finishing pad (wait 24 hours), Poorboys EX w/carnauba via PC on a finishing pad x2 with 24 hours in between, and Natty's blue by hand. Now I am happy with my results. RMG covered some of the flaws I wasn't able to get out, and adds a really deep warm look to the black, ex w/carnauba does the same with good durability, and natty's, well that's just about the wettest wax I've ever used. So here you go (hood got the most work, so the most shots).
Hola! I just realized I'm like a corporate ad in this picture, Boulevard Brewery shirt and hat.
The last thing I think I am going to do is color wetsand a few areas, like the trunk lid where there is quite a bit of orange peel (see the pic with the Infiniti logo). Most of the car is ok, just a couple areas are "???", so that's the next project.
Since then I've been lucky enough to come across some nice salvage finds. Z-tube from a wrecked Z along with its stock springs, which gave me a 1 inch drop and less understeer to the front, and an '05 exhaust, which is nice. Thanks for looking.
