The correct answer is 2 bucks a bottle.

That said, Zaino all the way.

So my answer is I don't know but personally I'd wait the 90 days. Besides if I can wait 90 days anybody can wait 90 days
I was told the same thing about Meguiars Steve. The sticking point is I would want to use the Menzerna polish like we did on my TA. And this is different than waiting for partsMr Goodwin....watching paint cure is boring as Hell!

Well another good question is how does paint cure, I believe I read that it cures from the bottom up but again I don't know. We need to find a body shop guru with a F-body to join the group.

Yeah I would use the Menzerna Final Polish, I did my car Monday and it was such a difference that even my wife could tell.

I wonder if Boyce's lawn chair, leaf blower, Guiness method works for curing paint.?

I've thought about it. Isn't it the same guy that did the Zaino recipe, but better and easier to apply? I'm sold on Menzerna products now that I have used them.

It produces results like Zaino... but it isn't as much work. Made by a guy that used to be a Zaino distributor. I don't think he could legally use the Zaino recipe.
