Springtime Detailing

I haven't put 'em on my IX yet, believe it or not. I told myself I wouldn't put them on until I had suspension under it. I just had some RobiSpec KWs installed last week and I'll slap the CEs on later this week … probably Thursday. I'm excited for the car to look complete again.

Partially the pics don't do it complete justice since I was using a simple Canon Elph as opposed to an SLR or something that would show more detail.
But you're right, Zaino gives a great reflective finish and a nice gloss but not a real wet look or deep depth.
Do you have pics of the MDX or other vehicles you've used the products on listed below? It'd be interesting to line up a comparison.

Poorboy's: Natty's, Natty's Blue, EX+, EX-P, Polish w/ Carnuba Blue
Klasse: AIO
Clearkote: Red Moose Glaze, Vanilla Moose, Carnuba Moose (VERY nice wax for black)
Pinnacle: XMT Final Glaze, Souveran (Another Fav for black)
Jeff's Werkstatt: Prime and Acrylic Jett
Meguair's: NXT paste, #21, #7
Optimum: Car Wax (easiest and best spray wax IMO ever!)
Collinite: 845, 476s Paste wax
Finish Kare 1: 2180 Sealant, Pink Wax
and of course Zaino: Z-2 Pro, Z-5, and coming soon Z-5 Pro
I'm goin to see what works well on different colors. I can tell you right away Natty's, 845, EX-P, Pink Wax, and Carnuba Moose will do silver good. Of course, I specialize in black though
. Dammit I need a black IX already.

I'm interested how they perform...while moving...not just for photo shoots! j/k

My apologies if I made Zaino sound lieka spoof...it's still my go to sealant for durability and when topped witha 'nuba, it combines it's glass-like shine with warmth and depth of wax...an unbeatable combo! I just prefer other sealants these days, because Zaino is a very laborious process (I do multiple layers with ZFX in one day), time which I'd rather spend polishing out the finish than topping with something that will only protect.
