Default First time with zaino

Took the weekend to visit my brother who has an 05 sti. He likes to take care of it quite a bit so he has a fine selection of zaino. We spent the better part of the afternoon washing waxing and sealing it. I think it came out great, definitely good products.....smell nice too

Before:



First wash:


Trying to get it into the shade to work:


Didnt upload many "during" pictures, but im sure you guys can assume what a car covered in wax looks like

After:




Brother got one of me without me knowing....trying to finish up the wheel:

Thanks. We did it all by hand, I was surprised with how well it came out without a buffer. I can only imagine it had we used one.

great job and you can never go wrong w/ a black t/a lol. I tried Zaino for the first time as well a week or two ago and at first I was satisfied w/ the results, but as time passes by and more rain and road usage goes by I appreciate its longevity and durability a lot. It's definitely far passing my expectations.

Zaino works best by Hand IMO, if you want to buff with a PC use some Menzerna
