This is my most recent detail. It's a 2001 Dodge Viper GTS which is 1 of only 81 made in this color combination for this particular year. The car was definitely well maintained by the previous owner, but there were fine scratches on most of the top surfaces which looked liked they were from wiping the car down when it was dirty. Interior was immaculate and only needed a quick once over.
For my process:
Washed the complete exterior, cleaned the wheels and the engine compartment
Clayed complete exterior with Opti-Clay
Spot-buffed a couple heavier scratches with Power Gloss by rotary
Buffed complete exterior with
menzerna IP by rotary
Buffed complete exterior with Optimum Polish by rotary
Wiped complete exterior down with IPA solution to remove any oils, etc. from the paint
Hand application of ZFX'd Z2 pro x3
Dressed tires and wheel wells with Kar Kraft Suer Blue dressing
Wetsanded 2 small spots on the wheels and polished all 4 with Wicked Metal Polish
I have to say that I am very impressed the way the car came out because I do not use Zaino that often and haven't tried it on a darker color car until now. The car looks incredible as it is, but I was wondering if it would look any better with a hand application of RMG topped with a coat of Natty's Blue ?? Would it even be worth it or do you think it would look cloudy with all those layers on there ? Just curious...
