Thats the information I was looking for. Been using Scratch X with the rest of the Zaino line and it just didn't seem to get out the scratches like it should, then the clay bar would still pick up a lot of crap.

If you have ordered from Zaino they should have sent you an email with a direct line to ordering...which I hadn't done yet until I heard some feedback. Waiting on pictures!

alright, 5 hours later we're done. now keep in mind that this car was pretty f'd up. i think that it came out unbelievable considering that this was all by hand. procedure was wash, claybar, wash, swirl remover, one coat of z5, and hit with quick detailer.

this one is the deck lid...

so what do you guys think?

yeah, we were about half way done with the car and a case of beer and the idea struck, hey what about before pictures? hell with it. but take my word for it, the car was messed up pretty good. especially the picture of me in the deck lid, it didn't reflect at all before.

I was on the site and ordered some more Z1, Z2 and Z5. Before I checked out, I added one of those to my basket. Im sure it'll come in handy.

Looks f'n sweet, especially for a hand done application. Judging from the pics you first posted, it was pretty swirled up
Got another black/NBM one to test a PC application on?

the first pics were of one spot on my fender. the pics of the car completely done are of my buddy's 97. i am trying to wait to get the PC to do mine but i am having trouble seeing how his came out by hand. especially since his was twice as bad as my fender was.

2000blackta, do you have any before pics? It looks amazing. I ordered my swirl remover yesterday, and I can't wait. The swirls I have are not that bad, but I am overdue for a wax.

i am probably going to get started on my caar today so i can take a few pictures of my car before i start. the swirls on mine aren't as bad as they were on the 97, but they are still pretty noticeable.

nope, i've never used any of those. i have tried a few others such as the scratch x and things along that line, but they aren't nearly as effective as the zaino.
