What do you use to detail your Z? Always looks so clean and

old guy

I use wolf gang products. Been tempted to go with a coating but there’s a lot of prep work involved and that stuff is a little tricky. The Z has so much shitZ on it (spray wax and derail sprays ) it’s starting to look a little haZy in the right light.
A little later this spring/ summer I will coat the maxima, would rather make a mistake and learn on that

Next time you are over remind me to get you a small bottle of the Blackfire sealant. I really like this stuff and I am not totally sure a ceramic coat is going to be any better.

old guy

Madwi,
Did you get the suede / leather applicator with your coating ?

I did. It came with a few extras too. Ive been on Theragcompany looking for even more extras and throw away microfibers for coating removal.

Madwi, saw your post on the other thread,
From my limited knowledge you need to do a paint correction first and some products then require you to use a perp and or alcohol wipe down to remove any oils left behind from the paint correction

Yeah, paint needs to be done because thats whats going to get sealed in. plan to hit it wwith the Metabo and a finishing pad mixed with 3m ultrafina SE. Ill strip all the old **** off with a good dawn wash and then alcohol wipe it down good. I watched a couple of videos on it and it doesnt look too bad. The good thing is its not a "pro" product that will need to sand off if fugged all up.

old guy

Don’t forget to clay bar it too!

That was a fun trip to Home Depot

Line to get in wasn't too bad thankfully. Manager was extremely helpful after the customer service cashier basically gave up on me

So once Mario actually got the card approved for me, he had Jim help me place the order while I was there. No dice. The product number for the Ridgid stuff in the in-store system simply says Coming Soon and can only be ordered through the website. And the temporary card they gave me cannot be used online yet because online orders require a CVV number. After Jim had watched most of this debacle unfold over past couple hours, he wasn't giving up on me. He called his helpline to see if I could buy a gift card using the temporary card in store. They told him yes but when I attempted to make the purchase it was declined. I left the store with a fairly useless piece of paper and a coupon

It's funny. I don't hold onto that shìt so I don't really think about it too much. But every once in a while, I look back a recent events and think, who is fùcking with me??
