50 layers zaino picture
Last year i stumbled across a photo online of a guy who had applied 50 layers of zaino to his ride...It was a photo with a little celebration in front of it...
Has anyone seen it or can they recall it???
I am desperate for this photo...
Thanks in advance...
Marc

That's what I was thinking too! If it's got 50 layers on it, then I'd be willing to bet there have been some swirls that have found their way into the paint at some point during the time it took to layer Z 50 times. I'm not knocking the product, but c'mon. Unless you're doing Accumulator washes (which most people wont do) and not driving the car, then you're going to pick up some marring.
The car looks great in the pic though, and the wheels are really clean!

Re: 50 layers zaino picture

Just looking, I would have guessed maybe 45-46 layers tops but not 50. Just doesn't quite have that 50 layer pop I was expecting.
