    Finally tried ZFX for the first time today...

    I wasn't really expecting anything other than two coats back-to-back. However, several things are different as far as my past experience with Zaino goes. The car I was experimenting on was the Corvette, and it already had several coats of Z5 (6 or so). 1. When it went on it seemed to...

    2007 Range Rover Correction by Richie's Custom Detailing

    You may remember me crying over my vert getting whacked in the parking lot this weekend. The guy backed into my passenger door and cracked the paint (and the door itself a little I found out later). He also marred the hell out of it with his filthy mud encrusted bumper. What do you think of...

    Something only Autopian's can appreciate...

    This weekend we had some friends over for dinner and hot tubbing. The first guests to show up caught me with the garage door up so they came in that way. As I was walking ahead of them to open the inside door to the kitchen for them, I heard a strange noise. I turned around to find one of my...

    Pad cleaning via Air Compressor... need some help

    Just bought a PC7424 with a 6 inch white foam pad. I was in Springfield MO at Grizzly (a huge manly-man type of tool store) and they had one left. Kind of a spur of the moment type of thing. I noticed after I got home and took it out of the box that it has the 5" counterweight (even though it...

    Possible to use full size carpet cleaner?

    I thought a thread of cool Christmas presents would be appropriate. And not just detailing related. For those of you who are considering buying or or getting an XBox ,you have to get the Gotham racing game. Very very cool and addictive. I have just worked my way up to the Porche Boxter...

    DLP TV issues

    Wash the cars and watch football. What a great country! I read in one thread that YoSteve was wondering how, after 6 months, and a Zainoed car stopped beading then what does that say about the protection. Here is my answer. Anybody on this forum couldn't answer that because they can't...

    The Demise of CD-2

    I used some of this on the black rubber trim of the Expedition about 6 weeks ago or so. I brushed it on with a small foam paint brush and wiped it off about 10 minutes later with a rag. Well, it has held up very well and since I just did one side of the truck I can see a big difference. And...

    Meguiars plastix

    Damn! Now that my wife's car sits outside (usually covered) it decides to hail - twice this month. First time was no biggie. This morning the car wasn't covered because she figured it would be raining and she didn't want to take it off in the rain (she leaves pretty early nowdays and...

    Here is the new vette with 4 coats of Z2. Went to a vette rally in Eureka Springs, AK this weekend and you would not believe some of the new vettes there. Swirl city.

    Change of pace, just installed a new Radar Detector...

    Valentine 1, pretty cool. Hardwired all the way, with the remote display. Anybody out there using this one? I'm driving some tomorrow (with the top up in the AM, supposed to be in the 30's!!!) Just a change of pace from detailing for the weekend.

    Collinite Sapphire Auto Wax--abrasives?

    I am now considered the most anal, geeky car detail person in my entire group of aquaintances. Just so you know. However, I did sell two bottles of Z6 tonight. At cost, because I am a bidness man! Seriously, I helped a friend of mine put Zaino on his 97 Corvette coupe tonight late...

    Corsa Car Care Products

    Worked on the vette again today, took yesterday off to drive it. I had never even drove one before I bought this car, so I had nothing to compare it to. But who cares! This thing is a rocket ship. It's a pavement oblivirator. It is more fun to drive than you can imagine. And the weather...

    some of my work!!!

    Red is a very forgivining color. Klasse or Zaino will be awesome. I use Z, others use K. What is up with the clay problem? We want to know. Just so it can be added to the collective knowledge. What I mean is --- give us all the details on why claying was problamatic for you. Note to...

    Aarrrgghhhh!!!

    I used this years ago, my father-in-law was a "dealer". That means he bought a case at a time and sold it to folks at his cost + shipping. It contained silicon (silicone, not sure.) It was a cleaner product, and was pretty easy to use and did seem to work pretty good on the cars I had back...
