Hi folks, My wife just bought a red convertible, so my detailing process needs to change. I want to be able to pull all of the depth and reflectivity I can since red is incredible when it's done right. My usual Zaino Z-2 pro won't get the look I'm after. This is my process...

Hi folks, we just bought a RED car. So my detail choices will have to change with it. All my other vehicles get the Zaino Z-2 pro/Z-8 treatment.....but this is red.... Oh, I'm excited as I can now use Souveran(have not used it since our last red car), due to what it makes red look...

OK, I need the wise, sage advice of experienced Autopians here. I have a 3 week old Corvette Z06, silver. I currently have 4 layers of Zaino Z-2 on. I am putting the car "to bed" for the evening with my Z-6 spray, and I see a bird attack on the roof. I spray Z-6 to soften it up, and it...

hi folks, I have been using Souveran on my red Tundra and Black '02 Z06 with fantastic results. Just got an '04 Z06, machine silver. I applied Souveran after claying and PCL. It does look very good, but not the "pop" and deep sparkel I'm looking for. Any experience from silver...

Hi folks, I tried searching for this and can't find a thread. If I missed it, please direct me there. I use PCL with my P/C 7424. On my Honda Element which has a lot of plastic body panels, i end up with white stains from the polish. On my Tundra, I get them on the black mud flaps...

Hi folks, The guys over at my Corvette forum are giving me a hard time for polishing/waxing my Z06 so soon. I applied PCL with my trusty 7424 P/C, then applied Souveran. I have read many times on Autopia that modern car paints and clear coats are baked at high temp. so that they are...

Hi folks, I really like the very high gloss of S, but being carnauba, and it being summer, it does not last long at all, which concerns me with UV protection on my red/black vehicles. I currently have multiple coats of Z-2 on. Long lasting UV protection and good reflection. Has anyone...

Hi folks, well my initial elation with Souveran faded when I went to QD two days after application(with Pinnacles' Crystal Mist). The fibers from my MF application towel of the QD were streaking and sticking to the finish! It was like dragging dry clay over the surface-not slick at all...

came in the mail today. If it works nearly as good as their packaging, this should be a surreal experience-they box this stuff like it's the hope diamond-almost as expensive. Can't wait for tomorrow to get here so I can apply it. 1. wash with dawn to strip existing wax and oils. 2...

I would appreciate some advice from you detailers with scratch repair experience. A piece of scrap aluminum flew from a vacant lot across the street to where my wife was parked and nailed her Z06-car is 3 months old, she is not happy. It popped the passenger door along the bottom third and...
