2000 vette vert

This was a silver metalic 2000 vette vert. It was getting detailed so i could be put up for sale.

10-11 hours spent
Interior -exterior combo
Single stage swirl removal
engine bay
claybar and extra tar removal

Wash and clay- DP extreme soap ,pinnicle clay

Tires ,rims and vert top - ARO Tires dressed with Optimum

Engine bay - megs degreaser dressed with optimum

Interior - dressed with surf city and deoderized with DG

Swirl removal - 1Z high gloss with green edge pad using flex

Exterior - Zaino AIO with pc and white pad, topped with UPP spray sealant

Paint was lifeless with normal swirling, the clay,polish,paint cleaner and sealants really made the metalic pop.

before






After














THANKS FOR LOOKING

Car looks sweet! Wishing there were more pics of the swirling before and afters though... What do you feel is better about the 1z than menzerna's line? Where are you purchasing 1Z? Do you find that this product is more cost effective and enables a better end result? Just wondering what the true reasoning for considering the switch. Thx!

Re: 2000 vette vert

It was hard to capture the swirls,that metalic silver hids stuff pretty good. Less dusting ,more cost effective and results are similiar. All the forum venders carry it.
