Pics of '07 OB

Finally took some pictures after tinting the windows (20% sides and rear, 50% windshield) and zaino. This was my first time detailing a car. I know it's not perfect, but I think it looks pretty good. What do you all think?




I know these aren't great shots, but I couldn't leave the house cause my roommate was blocking me in. I'll take some better ones tomorrow morning when I drive down Pacific Coast Highway.

From what I can tell from the pics, it looks awesome. Zaino is a great product and is very easy to use (although contrary to popular belief). Nothing like an enduring detailing session.......it's my mental therapy and I find it very gratifying!

Oh man , you are so lucky that you can Zaino now, I have to wait another 3 months before I can do mine. I had to shovel the snow out my driveway this morning .

Post some better daylight pics when you get a chance. Nothing like a freshly detailed black car .

Nice. My BO is getting dusty sitting around in our garage. I was all set to try Zaino'ing it last week but I wimped out when I failed to remember to pick up a spray bottle. It was damn cold here in San Diego (I think a high of 55 on Sunday). Did you apply it in a similarly cold situation? I definitely need to try next weekend.

Very nice job! But some daylight pics of the Black will really show how lustrous and dark the paint is, not to mention how 'blacked out' the tint is on the windows.

More pics!

Yeah, I live in West Hollywood. I started at 9pm Saturday. I was freezing my juevos off, needless to say. Here's what I did:

Washed with Dawn
Clay
Zaino carwash
Z5
Z6
Z5
Z6
Z2

Since it was near freezing that night, the polish didn't dry completely. I'm going to apply another coat or two of Z2 this Thursday during the daytime. Hopefully, the result will be much better.
