I have just over 60,000 miles on my T/A and I wanted pictures to show everyone what it looks like in it's prime before the paint really takes a beating. So, I spent about 10 hours cleaning the exterior and this is what I got. I used nothing but Mother's products and I am very pleased with the results. So, I'm asking you guys, "Does it honestly look good or do you think it could be better?" I've heard a lot about Zaino and I compared pictures of black cars which have been cleaned up with Zaino, and mine looks just like all of them, if not better. I definitely recommend Mother's to everyone!

Honestly it doesn't matter what you put on it, it's the prep that determines how good the paint looks (coincidently just like painting a car)
Zaino IMO is good for durability, it shines, certainly, but so do other products
As far as I can tell from the pics, it looks excellent for a 60k mile car, good job

Like 2K2WS6TA said it's all in the prep work done to the car you have to do all the steps to get the best results. It looks like you did all the right steps cause it looks really nice, good job.

I think it looks good.. My car has over 100k on the body and I wax it once a month.. Still shines like it did when I got it..

What steps did you take? Also what 'prep work' are you guys talking about?

the prep work would be the clay, washing, buffing (to get rid of swirls), cleaning the paint ,making sure the paint is as smooth as possible before putting your wax, Zaino, whatever you put on last

I can't imagine needing to spend 10 hours on a waxjob...but black cars look great when waxed!
