Well...my opinion is this.

His paint in person was nicer than the black on the RX because you could see every swirl. His paint however is already starting to get some bad orange peel and a few spiderwebs in spots....

I believe the paint on my RX will last longer than the paint on his Z (from signs both he and I have seen already). Also I will say that the paint on the Z chips so easy it's not even funny. I have yet to get a chip after 6000 miles.

It's so touching to see a Z owner and an 8 owner getting along so nicely

Which Zaino products did you use, and how much time did it take?

Saturn,

We did a dawn wash, then ZFX/Z-2 and the gloss enhancer spray...only had time to do one coat. Took about 1.5 hours with a wash, drying, Some clay bar and then zaino.
