Zaino Clayed And Gloss Detailed! Pics!!! Liquid Platinum G37!

SO today before raining/winter season,

I decided to clay and rewax my car.

I have had my previous cars (350z) professionally detailed before but since the car is 9 months old i used a buddies supply instead of spending the 150 for an exterior detail.

My buddy had ordered the zaino car kit, so i wanted to give it a try and review it.

i used the clay ZAINO Z18 to strip oxidation and the old wax, and we added a coat of the zaino mixture with a quick detailed. (z-2 and z6 gloss)

i also purchased some Meguirs Gold Class paste wax, which i am going to add sunday after it rains!

PICS BELOW ARE FROM CLAYING/GLOSS/POLISH. Will add pics of wax later!

This stuff is amazing and easy to use.

Claying took about an hour for the whole vehicle (REMOVED A LOT OF ROUGHNESS AND MADE IT SILKY SMOOTH), then the mixture took about 30 mins to apple, 30 to dry, 2 coats so far,

I am going to add 2 more coats then apply the paste wax.

I spent about 4 hours doing this with my buddy, in the garage.

amazing results, gave my liquid platinum g some shine

if you guys get a hold of some zaino it is highly recommended, way better than anything targer, kragen or walmart sells! AVOID THE WHEEL CLEANER ITS TOO STRONG AND CAN CAUSE DAMAGE, theres other threads and posts on that....

overall this is some of the best product i have used with amazing results. well worth the money for those looking at detailing supplies!!!

Gold class car wash is the shampoo i used, bets stuff ever!

hope you guys enjoy!

looks awesome, I'm a fan of zaino.

Have you ever tried Adam's undercarriage spray, it rocks for wheel wells.

from Adams themselves, who I believe is a sponsor here. adamspolishes.com

You just spray it on your undercarriage and wheel wells and forget about it. Returns the deep dark black look to them.
