I wasnt too happy with how it turned out after last week, so I decided to redo it. I just got done taping it off in my garage. Wish me luck



I'll get some pics up throughout the process and/or after its done.

Tonight was a perfect night for me to tackle this. Its rainy and I had nothing better to do. Swirls have been removed!





Now its time for the polish.

^ If swirls have been removed, what exactly are you polishing and why?

I used a swirl remover to remove all the swirls... Now I'm using Z2 show car polish to make it a little shinier.

Oh... The name is misleading. Polishes are abrasive, Z2 is not abrasive. Its a sealant, so you're sealing the car now. Not trying to be nit-picky, just its often misused and people get confused.

Post pics when you're done!

I tried taking some pictures with my D3000 but they didnt turn out good. I did take a video of it with my iphone to hold everyone off until the morning.

I sold my SS in December and didn't pick this up until a few weeks ago. I loved my SS also regretted selling it... Until I bought this. lol

I love driving it. It just feels totally different. Go out and drive one and you'll be hooked. I'm happy with my decision.

Everyone will have a different opinion
