Brilliant Black Zaino Pics

Here are some pictures after my first Zaino. I just installed my clear corners about an hour ago, but they are not shown on the pictures. Let me know what you think.

I actually was hit and run about 3 weeks ago, sucks! In a parking lot none the less. It is so frustrating when you take extra measures to avoid parking near anyone and this still happens, ridiculous. Here are a few pics of the damage, came to about $750. They did a good job on the repair though.

Here's a pic of my BB a few years back after a few coats of Z-2, Z-5, and Z-6 in between.

Thanks Tigerlee

Raptor2k:

To start from fresh, I usually wash the 8 twice with Dawn dish washing soap to remove all remaining wax/polish on the car. I then clay the whole car doing only small sections at a time to prep for the polish. From there I put on 2 coats of Z-2 (with Z-6) inbetween every coat. Then I put on two or three coats of Z-5 (scratch remover; again with Z-6 in between each coat). I finish off the 8 with one last coat of Z-2 and a final spray of Z-6 for the final touch.

I need to do these steps again to my 8 this weekend to put some coats of Z-2 and Z-6 back on her.

Those are my steps I took and they produced that picture (picture could not even get how clear and shiny the paint was). I am a satisfied Zaino user for 4 years now.

I was waiting to see if someone would catch that. Complete accident that I got one of the jets that fly right over the house in the reflection of the windshield. Planes make their landing approach right over our house and the airport is like 5 miles away. I thought it turned out to be a really cool pic and helps show off my Zaino shine

Thought you might like this one. BB is the best color by far, for any car, not just the 8.

As a proud BB owner, I must say that's a mirror shine! I see my reflection on it from my PC.
