Very clean look. Sometimes I regret not choosing white for my M3. And so easy to maintain.

Zaino is the best for light colored cars...its just so hard to see while applying it!!!

I am a KLASSE addict, but at a Lightning show earlier this year there were several white L`s but by far the best looking one was done with Zaino. I`d stick with that on the Oxford white. Just take your time with the PC and get every scratch out, well at least 95% of them out. If you don`t have polishes yet, I`d recommend the 1Z line (Utlra Polish, Paint Polish and Metallic Polish) to do the actual cutting and Menzerna FP as a last step polish to really burnish the paint to its highest possible gloss before apply any of the Z. The 1Z line has lots of oils (and fillers?) and the FP , being water based, will remove any of the fillers/oils. This way you can see if any marring remains. If you find any you can spot polish them our before the Z.

I have the metallic polish, which is what I planned on using in a week or two...then topping it with some Z2.

That`s a great shine for a white car - it`s no wonder people get hooked on Zaino with results like that.
