nice job. If thats your car you should definately try AIO/SG/Souveran



If the paint is properly prepped the only real visual difference is more reflectivity "with depth" by using the Zaino. "True" depth and wetness is created during prep. Features that will remain even when LSP is on its last leg. I also use AIO and SG and find very little difference is appearance (Klasse slightly less reflective and slick than Zaino) and love either combo (AIO before Zaino or Klasse.)

Every so often I will top some well cured Zaino or Klasse with Souveran paste or Crystal Mist, P21S, Meg #16 or Natty's just to see if there is a perceivable enhancement. Not really, except maybe a very slight loss in clarity and sharpness. :nixweiss I can accomplished the same goal without the clarity/sharpness loss by adding another coat of the sealant properly. More time involved than slapping on a topper but time invested is returned by the durability factor.



Prep for depth, wetness, color hue and surface smoothness

LSP to protect all that labor of love.

scuzy,

Car looks great and will for a long time with just minimal care. :xyxthumbs
 
Just my 2 cents .. do not change a thing! If I saw you driving by with that finish my head would turn!

Exactly!!!!! :bounce



I may even turn around and ask you what you were doing for prep and using as a LSP. :xyxthumbs
 
As a fellow M3 owner I would have to say that your car looks amazing! It is hard to see how anything will improve upon the look you have already achieved. My M3 is Jet Black, and while I haven't tried Zaino, I have used the Klasse twins with very favorable results. Recently I tried AIO followed by Pinnacle Souveran paste wax, and I think this is the best I have achieved in the 22 months I have had this car.
 
i love zaino and how easy it is to get on. I tried klasse and i think it's a little more difficult to apply but it also produces the same look. Can i top this with anything else or should i only top with Zaino ever few weeks ?



And thansks for the compliment on the car i love this baby. I need to use the cyclo i just bought on the 330i in the back. It'll need a complete clay bar and then some DA polish on that sucker ot get the paint prepped , then thinking of some p21S paint cleaners , a layer of AIO and then do some SG to compare the looks between the zaino and klasse
 
well this is the before pic but the reflection on it may make it look better but i cna totally tell the difference between zaino and just klasse AIO, and Meg NXT

i know about the prepping but i think i can tell the difference if someone uses zaino on a fully prepped surfaces over using something like klasse and P21 or souveran w/ good surface prep as well. i think it came out great you just hear a lot of BMW owners talking about using klasse on their vehicles.. IMHO i think zaino leaves too much of a plasticky look......NO WAX WARS PLEASE...........:xyxthumbs Truce
