There's nothing quite like a freshly Zaino'd 330i...

FastAttackNick · 06-18-2006, 07:36 PM

For those that are skeptical about the Zaino process - here's a 3 month old (with heavy commuting) E90 with ClearBra, 1 coat of Z5, 2 coats of Z2, with Z6 and Z8 buffing. Judge for yourself, but I'm very pleased. And very tired...

mds82 · 06-18-2006, 08:39 PM

aw theres nothing nicer looking then a car that was just Zaino'ed. I got my E-90 post sticker in the same place

espo · 06-18-2006, 10:47 PM

Couldn't agree more...

Now If I can only find the time to add more coats (I have 2 coats of Z-5 and 1 of Z2 pro on the car right now).... I really found that a couple extra coats after the first 3 really adds to the look!!! :rocks:

FastAttackNick · 06-19-2006, 04:54 AM

I know what you mean - it took the better part of Sunday to wash and wax - and only one coat went on today! And now I'll have dead-arm all day Monday...

If It's that hard to put on and take off, then you are using too much.. I can get a coat on, let it dry, buffed it off and wipe down with Z-6 in less than an hour with not alot of effort. 1oz of polish should really be able to get you 3 coats (that's all I'll mix with ZFX at a time).

Looking good

I have the exact same front plate frame/cover on my SG

FastAttackNick · 06-19-2006, 09:53 PM

I suspected I might be using too much - it's just hard to see if I'm still getting any on there when it's real thin.

pawarrant · 06-19-2006, 10:36 PM

You should put just enough on that you can barely see it haze. B.T.W. if I'm ever in Norfolk can I get a tour of your other ride?

bavarian19 · 06-20-2006, 09:31 PM

Looks great!!!!

FastAttackNick · 06-20-2006, 09:50 PM

pawarrant,
That can certainly be arranged! Either Norfolk, or the Providence, Rhode Island area (New London Subase).

PSUBALL10 · 06-21-2006, 07:04 AM

FastAttackNick, what percent tint do you have? That looks really nice not too dark but dark enough

Pangearox · 06-21-2006, 01:59 PM

2006 BMW 645Ci
2006 Audi S4

Thank you! That is 35% all around with the Pinnacle Series ceramic tint. I was very pleased with how it came out.

SCA · 06-22-2006, 10:45 AM

Looks great! Sounds like a of work.

BTW, your post has reminded me that it is time to get off my butt and polish/wax my SG 330.
