I was contacted for the vette, since we have water restrictions here in N. GA It is two weeks old, and he wanted to get some protection on it. So the finish wouldn't take to much of a beating. He is a long time zaino user, and that is what was used on his ride. As you can see the dealer did one hell of a detail job on it for him. That was a easy fix, now it looks like it should look. Before I did anything to the corvette, I wanted to fix the dealer mess. So I took a few pics, then a tape line. So you can see the half and half shot. ** For this I went with the PC and a org pad. With my Optimum Polish/3M Extra Cut mix** You can see how well this worked, that is why I love my OP. The Wash DP 4-in-1 with two gallons of water, and a spray bottle mix. I use the spray mix to wet the paint even before I start to wipe the panel. I also used the same mix for the tires and rims. With the 16' deep reach brush, and a reg wheel brush. The Gameplan I went with Zaino-AIO and a new org pad with the PC. Section by section till the whole thing was done. About 26-28 total sections. After then Zaino Z-5pro was applied to the finish. Interior Doors/dash/console done with DP Interior Surface Protectant. Seats were conditioned with Zaino Z-10. The before from dealer Midpoint WITH FUN SUN Afters
Nice turn around there HighEndDetail, that 50/50 picture really shows the difference you made to the vehicle. Poor vehicle was covered in swirls and holograms :shakehead: but you sure turned it around. Thank you for sharing.
Very nice! Great job!!!! I rescued my friends brand new Vette which the dealer had so graciously added some holigraming too... I used the PC wtih 085rd and an Edge white pad.
Hi, I'm new here too, but your process is almost exactly what mine was! I'm also a new convert to Z-AIO (from Z1) and I must say it's superior in every way. The ease of application, the smell, the cleaning ability plus a mild polish AND it's a bonding agent so you don't need to make a "make shift" meth lab for ZFX! I followed up my Z-5 Pro with a layer of Z-2 Pro and even on my white car I'm VERY pleased with the depth and shine. BTW The Vette looks great! Keep up the good work!
Dont you just love that dealer prep!! You take this machine, pour some of this stuff on there, work it in and watch all the swirls appear. The more swirls, the better it looks. Great job on a beautiful car. Excellent work.
Great Job!!!:thumb: looks great. I'm looking into getting the Zaino Kit with everything. I was just wondering how long you waited in between coats using the ZFX? and how long it would take with out it? :woot:
I thought the clear was rather soft... I corrected some pretty decent holigrams with just 085rd and a white edge pad on a PC. I'd definately start easy on this one...
