During the course of drying the windows the car ends up dry without you touching the body panels.
 I just got done doing the first part of an initial Zaino Show Car Polish application to the Celi.....the Wash with Dawn, claybar the car, wash with dawn steps. Taking a break now before I go mix the swirl reducer polish and put a couple of coats on, then one coat of the final polish. If you want pics.......you'll have to wait! muahahahahahaha..........ha ha ha........ha......hooooooooooo This evening pics will be posted. I must say that for a 99, the paint is in pretty good shape all things considered (location, mileage). This post has been edited by Fastbird: Aug 12, 2006 - 6:37 PM --------------------  |

Nice job! I use Zaino too - it makes my white '96 look great. Highly recommended, but it is kind of a pain in the butt to do all the steps. Lasts forever, too - not like carnauba. The interesting thing is that they say on their site that you can wax in the sun and heat. I didn't have the guts to actually try it, but they say you can because it's not a carnauba product.

Samantha All three of our cars (the running ones) have Zaino, and all were done in the sun in my driveway. Claybarring a hot surface is a PITA, but the Zaino part you just have to move a little more quickly when spreading it on the surface. Plus, the heat helps it dry faster. -------------------- |

Awesome wax job. What year is your vette anyhow? Buddy of mine rolled in last night after going up to NY to get "something" (We were convinced he was getting a new 3-speed racing trans for his trans am) with a 1997 white vette, w/ only 30k on the odo.

Siiick, and on a side note, i think 94 was a superb year for paint, mine is in pretty decent condition minus the double-dent/crease that someone put in my pass. door the first day i owned it
