top coat wax

[ZombieSoldier]

It was ford competition orange from a mustang cobra with gold pearl on top of it before being burrowed under clear. The white was Chrysler cool vanilla with white pearl

I have been running p21s wax for years and it does great!!!

 

[ZombieSoldier]

So for Christmas I get a bottle of meguires ultimate liquid wax from family ( it was the thought that counted) and I will tell ya, I am actually impressed with the ease of install and take off and it worked really well driving home from Pennsylvania to Colorado, through rain and snow. I think I will install some on my F250 and keep the expensive stuff for the expedition!

it just hit me...is zaino a multi step process with different compounds? i htink a guy told me about this stuff...he said if i "really love" my truck...to use this...if this is it...i think i remember that it was a multi step process with several compounds...

 

[ZombieSoldier]

Here ya go bud, trust me it is worth it.. More costs you put on the deeper the shine gets. It is a series of things to put on to clarify the finish then seal it to not allow any contaminants to enter the pores of the paint.

While Zaino is good there is better out there...I was a zainofile for 10 years and have come to find "better" products in my eyes...Also if you look at Zaino and DUragloss side by side you MAY see some similarities not saying Sal is repackaging duragloss and selling it for triple price but I am also not saying he doesnt...

I have found for correction you cant beat the Meguiars DA Microfiber setup...I have got the best results from this as apposed to my foam pads with optimum or megs 105/205 combo...It just cuts faster, quicker and with less pressure...I have used this with a PC7424XP with great results...

As far as sealant I swear by Blackfire Wet Diamond...I dont think it can be beat...And now that Autogeek owns them you can get it from them at decent prices...

For a LSP its all about Pinnacle Signature Series II for me...I have AGHD and yes its great but as stated it doesnt last...Right now I am sitting on 6 months of sitting outside on both cars and they still bead and shine just as good as the day they were applied...

I will say that Zaino does make the best leather conditioner on the market and I still use it to this day...

I will be picking up Fuzion, BFWD Midnight Sun and Pinnacle Souveran sometime soon...Also the Wolf Chemicals Body Wrap is looking like it will end up in my garage as well as its just plain badass...

Ahh another detail-aphile like myself!!!! I personally am not a fan of the pinnacle series of products, but to each his own. PLEASE let me know what you think of the BFWD. I wanna try it, just haven't pulled the trigger though. Also I like P21S 100% but I gave been out of it for a while. It's a great cheap alternative to my supernatural

Go ahead and pull the trigger...LOL...I love it so much when BAB was going out of business I bought 2 bottles of everything...Then when AG had their 50% sale I bought more of each as well...I swear by the stuff...Its the best Sealant on the market...And I have tried a ton of them...

Supernatural is AWESOME...Nick @ AG sent me a sample tub a few months back and its so gorgeous...Just so much $$$

I want some Crystal Rock to try but at almost $2K a tub I wont ever have any lol...

 

[ZombieSoldier]

Yeah it is expensive but I swear on that stuff. Do that stuff is that good huh? Guess I better order some. What steps do you use to put it on. Do you put a carnauba on it or do you let it be as is

I top it with a Nuba...

Here is what I do:

1. Compound
2. IPA Wipedown
3. Polish
4. IPA Wipedown
5. PO85RD
6. IPA Wipedown
7. BFWD - Let sit on the paint for 12 hours then remove
8. LSP

I feel its great stuff...AG is running 20% off right now as well...HINT HINT

If not I can prolly sample you some out...

Wow really. Would you sample enough for the expedition? I wanna try it before I buy it.

 

[ZombieSoldier]

Do you have pics of the BFWD on the expedition? I am curious to see the depth of the shine.

2 or 3 ounces should do it right?

Thats just the BFWD no LSP...

 

[ChrisJ]

Also no compounding or polishing on it either...

We were headed to New Jersey the next day so it literally was a wash and sealant day for it...I also used BFWD on the chrome trim and it worked great...

 

[ZombieSoldier]

That's fantastic looking. I'm sure with the color I have the metallic will really glow especially with some good Nuba on top. Might have to order some more supernatural (ran out using it on my buddies pristine white vette). PM me so we can get the sample thing worked out.
