Zaino?

What do you guys like to make your ride look nice?

My '03 is looking pretty ratty - should I get a pro to clay-bar it and go with zaino or another synthetic, or stick with wax?

What's that 5 dollar stuff in the orange bottle called again? Nu-finish?

Thoughts?

just so no one calls me a butthole for not doing it myself, I don't have the time nor the patience to detail it myself - too many commitments.

I wasn't a big on detailing the Evo until this past spring when I got ahold of Zaino....
it was an all day process, claybarring was the most time consuming but I loved the results....

Ah, that was before Nelson. Hit the track a few more times and your front end will have some good war wounds!

I know, it's hard to be a show car and a track car at the same time....

get a Zaino starter kit from www.zainobros.com and clay bar it yourself. Ive been using zaino for a year now on my Evo and love it

I even use Zaino on my wheels

here is my Evo after 2 weeks of rain and all i did was spray it off at the car wash only using $2 in quarters... thats all i did. Sprayed it then drove off..

Zaino everything. Although if you don't plan on doing it yourself, find a shop that uses it. To do it "right" it will take you all day, and it sounds like you don't have a lot of time.
