My SUV covered in Zaino!

My SUV covered in Zaino!



I bought this 20003 trailblazer which had embedded swirls from the previous owner.

I am a bit dissapointed in that my pc could not rid them.

As a result, this detail of my own vehicle gave me the justification to get a rotary (dewalt 849) in the very near future. Scottwax, I honestly don`t know how you do it with a pc only :D



In the end, I came out with satisfactory results. Once i get my rotary it will be a different story for sure. Upon "up close" inspection in sunlight and with "fluorescent lighting" i can see the swirls which keep me up certain nights. May be i`m being too picky but its work in progress until my rotary can be delivered. Overall, I`m no longer a fan of the porter cable but came out with a decent enough degree of shine and protection for the upcoming winter.

SSR3 w/ sonus orange pad - pc speed 6

SSR1 w/ sonus blue pad - pc speed 4

AIO x 1 w/ sonus blue pad - pc speed 3

z2 PRO x 3 by hand , with z8 in between layers







My SMR:

I hit it with my pc, with sonus orange pad at speed 6 using SSR3 and it did not make a dent into these swirls even after 4 passes !!! Of course i worked in small sections. Of course I worked the compound in long enough. Still in the end, i gave up.



Here are the final pics. Not bad. At least i have enough protection for the winter. I`ll maybe add a few more layers before the winter officially arrives. Overall, i like the wet look z2 pro gave me with AIO.



Thanks to the Autopia regulars who answered all my questions..

Sweet. Blue is my favorite color for Zaino - looks awesome.

That Caddy in the garage ought to be an extreme detail candidate! :P



Nice job on the TB!

Dripping wet, are you sure you dried it all. :2thumbs:

You used SSR3 and didn`t get a dent in the swirls? I can`t believe that, were you adding enough pressure?

[imported_DARKSTI]

gotta love Zaino on blue!

[Mr Singh]

Wow, you had orange pad @ speed #6? Last time i did that, the pad flew off :LOLOL



Came out good though :)

[s2skimon]

chang - yes, i had enough pressure. I figured the swirls must have embedded for years. I can`t figure it out. I could remove the swirls and scratches on my dad`s old caddy but not this ?

mr singh - yup.. orange and speed 6 and nadda..

supurban - did my dad`s caddy last summer. I have the pics of that transformation. Had no problem doing that with dacp, orange , speed 6.. and all the swirls came out

Looks great. But clean and dress your tires & wheel wells before photo shoot. :rules: :chuckle:





Keep that outside long enough and it looks like you have a few neighbors who might be asking you for a favor. :2thumbs:
