hey guys,



great site been reading for a few months :)



got a spa colored s2000 and i've been using z2 z5 z6 etc..



well had some stuff in the paint so i re-clayed and started with z5 and two coats of z2.. looks good but i'm looking for the deepest shine i can get.. what's the best topper?



I don't mind re-applying every couple of weeks..





btw no pc yet all this is done by hand..

Someone here tried topping Z..can't remember who..I do remember that he went back to just using Z..maybe he'll see this and respond..Most people dont bother topping Z..I tried it too and really didnt see a difference..try it and let us know..

I just tried topping Zaino with Mothers Pure Carnauba Wax. Great results as of right now, but time will tell.:xyxthumbs



It really deepened the shine, I liked it better than just Z alone.

Any good quality pure carnauba(P21s, Souveran, Mothers, etc..) would give great results!



Good luck and post pics after you're done! I just posted my topped pics in the Detailing section. Check it out!:xyxthumbs



:wavey
 
figure i'll try topping it with Mother's this weekend.. guess i shoudn't be to concerened with how long it lasts as the z should last six+ months and the topper may be appiled every couple weeks..

I've put several coats of S100 on top of Z over the last couple of months; so far so good. I'm switching back to just Zaino at the end of the summer, though; it's easier to care for than the carnauba during the winter, IMO, and Nebraska winters are somewhat salt-laden.

I have topped Zaino with S100 and Blitz ( was too lazy to remove it and

actually see no reazon to do that).

The difference on black was HUGE. It was three times deeper with carnauba.



Anyway - before winter I am coming back to Zaino even that I like quality carnauba much

more (better results for me, and easier to work with - again - IMHO).

Your car is absolutely the finest shine I've ever seen!

What year is your Buick?:bounce

I'm using Finish First with S100 on my red S2000 and I can see a big difference in the depth of the finish and it seems to have more of a liquid, wet look to the finish that I didn't have before. It looks like a wet red mirror. Of course, you have to reapply the carnauba much more often than you would need to reapply the polymer product, but to me it's worth it.

Thank for a compliment ;)



It is nice to hear that after few weekends of work when nobody's really appretiates that :D



That Regal is almost 4 years old now, is a daily driver, and spend most of his life OUTSIDE, and was neglected for first 3 years. Acid rain marks are indestructuble now :( At least I can make them almost unvisible, and my car still looks way better than 99.9% of cars I am seeing around.
