2001 BMW 325i after zaino

[imported_SHICKS]

I have been using zaino for a year now. I love the durability and the looks are decent since I cannot seem to get my car polised the way I like it, defects tend to show with zaino.



Process:

Duragloss wash

Claymagic with ONR/water spray as lube

Polish FPII

ZAIO

Z5Pro w/zfx x2

Z2Pro x1

Next day

ZCS

Z8 after cure time

Wheels got ZAIO + ZCS + Mother FX tire shine

widows NXT glass cleaner



I am not trilled with ZCS yet. I cannot get an even coat that dries clear, I guess I am using too much or wrong pad. I like the look and application of Z2 better.



We did this on a 2006 Mustang at the same time, it came out better since the clear would lend itself to polishing. I cannot get much but a little more gloss out of the BMW.



The lighting is a little low.



enjoy,

Steve

I really like the look of Z2Pro, that BMW looks pretty wet from what I see. Keep it up!

Thanks everyone.



I am about to head out to the garage now with my DSLR to see if I can get some better shots. This is a once a year detail for me, I just touch it up in the fall. Next I have to do the interior, it goes quickly but it's my least favorite detailing task. Actually last November my future sister in-law dump a coffee on my center console and carpet. I cleaned it up well, but one or two buttons still stick. The carpet does not smell yet(waiting for hot summer days), since I put the same product used to get the smell of cat urine out.



Thanks,

Steve
