I use Zaino but I can use different brands ( which is alot easier to use but does not last like Zaino) depending on the clients preference but normally Zaino...on this particular wagon I use both porter cable to remove the swirl and slight imperfection and also did it by hand ( 70% of the time)...this wagon is a show car and an everyday car so maintenance is the key and Zaino really helped me alot in maintaining this wagon for James...and believe me it's pretty insane when you see this wagon in person.

Nice detail work Laidback.


And now for my rant... It is because of detail work like this that I have just spent 1:30 (starting at 11:45 at night) polishing my tailpipes on a cold garage floor.

Oh no, a simple washing just won't due any more. Clean, just isn't clean enough. I have to go out and try to match the detailing master pieces of you guys.

Jimmini Christmas. I don't even drive the car during the week and I am taking a half a bottle of quick detail spray twice a week to get the dust off that collects on the beast while it sits in the garage.

How could you let this happen?

One of these days, I will make all you detailing gurus pay dearly for my aching elbows.
