Few pics after some Zaino PC

**Y2KPewterSS** · 12-25-2007, 08:42 PM

I took these about a month ago and forgot to post them. These pics were taken after applying some Zaino PC by hand to the black stripe on the spoiler. Zaino PC is a mild abrasive and can be used by hand or buffer to work on swirl marks. I should have taken some before pics, but as you can see, Zaino PC is a good product

Nice reflections
Did you notice any measureable difference in correction by applying the Z-PC by hand?

Some, it will help with very very fine swirls. I would like to use it with a buffer someday and see what its potential really is. I would like to get a buffer this next year and begin to learn paint correction. I am having a house built, will be ready in May so all unnecessary expenditures are on hold until after then.

It does well with the PC and an orange pad for what I've seen. I was just curious about the hand application...

Zaino has a good rep for a reason! Those pics look great, I can't wait to get my car repainted. The clear coat is bubbling and peeling ->

Lookin' good P!

You're more then welcome to test it out with my buffer in the meantime P.

We might have to try that out Drew when the weather gets a little nicer

Just let me know when and it's all yours to try out.

Hopefully in the next month or two if I can get a full day to clean up the car I will post some before and after pics of zaino pc with my new pc buffer(christmas present). Right now my car is pretty rough, ever since the accident it has had tons of scratches all over it. There mild but to me noticeable. Most just from dust and dirt from sitting in the shop for 2 months.

If thats factory paint take back to the dealer & file a complaint. Did that with my Ford truck and come to find out they had a silent re-call. Got an all-over paint job for free.

A question for all of you detailing guys. Can a product like Zaino PC also work well with a cutting pad to remove heavy oxidazition and scratches? Or is it purely a finish grade polish for clearcoat finishes?

It will clean up nicely and remove fine swirls and oxidation; it's on the mild side as far as cutting power, but nothing like a compound like Menzerna would do...

I have a set of smoked turnsignals and smoked sidemarkers to pair up with some whistler headlights. I need to acquire a second set of headlights so I can get it done, but have other priorities ATM. Thanks for the compliment and suggestion though
