Another Zaino Success Story

I just took delivery June 29th and this was going to be my first detail job with the 8 so I wanted to do it right. I read through all of the stuff in this forum and decided to spend the money and go with the Zaino. My wife thought I was nuts until I showed her some of the pictures posted here, she was blown away and said if I could make my car look like that than I should go for it. my process was this:

1. Wash with Dawn and Dry
2. Clay bar
3. Wash with Z7 and Dry
4. Z5 and buff out (random orbit buffer for 90% of the car)
5. Z6
6. Z2 and Buff out (random orbit buffer for 90% of the car)
7. Z6
8. Z2 and Buff out (random orbit buffer for 90% of the car)
9. Z6

While waitng for the polish to dry I would do the wheels (Meguires Gold Class), Interior (Meguires NXT Protectant VERY nice), Glass, and vacuum.

Results speak for themselves. I will not use anything else on this car as long as I own it!

Attached are my pictures.

Notes: Don't try to throw a baseball around with your kids the next day!

Well, I just ordered myself some Zaino as well. It should be here in time for me to spend some "quality" time with my car next weekend applying it. I'd have to say that your last photo clinched it for me. The reflection of the sky on that hook looks amazing, great photography!
