Yea, me too! I did have numeous layers of Zaino on my Red SC430. One day, I was reaching for the Z18 clay and grabbed the Souveran Paste. So I figured, what the hell, others topped their Z. So I put up to two coats on and holy crap! What a change! With Z under it, it looks deeper/wetter and...

If you go to the gallery, you'll see what Armorglove looks like on my SC430. Hood, front air-dam, headlights, fender, rockers, side mirrors and door cups. Left polish in area to highlight where it ends. The edges are wrapped UNDER the hood, making for a great application. AMORGLOVE...

OK, just got one of the DF Towels to test. It's a "natural" MF more like a high-end terry. In fact, this has the same resemblance to Autopia's CBT towel. Here's the website: DF Towels Not bad towel, a bit pricey, but still very nice. I'll see how well it holds up. Regards, Deanski

OK guys, it looks like we are missing one very important step in Zaino prep and application. You MUST wash the cars finish AFTER ANY polish application prior to the application of Zaino! All polishes, doen't matter who's it is contain some form of oil. Be aware of this when you get ready...

OK, I have some small scratches on my Armorglove clear bra paint protection film and asked 3M what to do. Here is the reply: " We usually recommend a plastic cleaner similar to the Plastx product to remove light scratches. Most of the plastic cleaners require a lot of effort and time to...

I remember using this glaze quite a bit long ago and wonder if anyone is still using it and their results. Just got chance this weekend to start on the '03 Red Lexus SC430! Started with Menzerna FP on White pad, still swirls. Switched to Menzerna IP and Orange pad. Hmm, still swirls from...

Anyone have info where to get Menzerna polish in quart or gallons? The small bottles are fine for now, but I'm looking to find it in larger containers. Please let me and others know. THANKS! Regards, Deanski

Guys, I was going through some of my detailing supplies of yore, and found gallons of Meguiars Acid Rain Correction Cream and Clearcoat Conditioner. Anyone remember this stuff? The ARCC smelled like Denteen, and the CCC did a great job on clear coated cars back then. Gee wonder why...

Well here's the latest from both Lexus Customer Service and their discussion from the dealer. Refreshing the situation: The car was stone chipped, the dealer, once notified of my dissatisfaction was willing to do the repairs. Prior to dropping off the car on a Tueday, I highlighted ALL...

I'm looking for good door "ding" guards for my Lexus SC430. I've picked-up a set from one site, and they are somewhat short. I should have purchased two sets to reach from one end of the door to the other. Has anyone used these temp door guards? If so, where did you get them and did they...

Well, as soon as Lexus fixes those nasty stone chips on my new '03 Red SC430, looks like I may try to top off the Zaino Z2 coats on one area ( just in case it looks like crap) with the Zymol Japon that still sits in the fridge, along with it's mate for plastic- Zymol Detail. I've used ALL...
