Fresh Coat Of Zaino..

I put on a fresh coat of Z2 yesterday. I used some 3M Swirl Mark Remover and a coat of Z2 on it about a month ago, so this was just to get another coat on and enhance the shine. Boy is it hard to keep a black car clean and shining, but when you do they are beautiful. I hope the pictures come out ok, used my v710.

You can see in the last picture with the reflection that Mazda has a problem with orange peel and their black paint.

Looks good. What kind of camera are you using? The images are a little foggy.

Brice, I like the pics, but your last pic with a decent digicam (and macro mode) would have been amazing.

Thanks, I just wish there wasn't so much orange peel in the factory paint, and does anyone else notice that the paint scratches very easily, maybe it is just because it is black and you can see the scratches then

WOW, sweet looking ride!

Looks like all the hard work involved in applying the zaino is paying off for you. Good job.


Oh and YES, black cars look the sexiest after a coat of zaino...

I don't know about scratching, but my VR sure has a lot of orange peel.

That actually looks about right for a 1.3. Still good for a camera phone.
