I've been working on mine for the past 3 days. Washed, clay'd, now doing a stage 2 polish , wax, then the painters tape. I needed to put an orbital to her for a good year, just haven't had the motivation to do it, but zdayz is a good excuse

I'm showing up in a dirty car, because there is no sense polishing a turd :ugh2:

I might not even wash until I'm down there, because I'll be down there for days before anyone else shows up. I've got 12 hrs worth of bugs that'll be stucking to the bumper, so there's no point in washing before the drive.

epiphany.

anybody use road wrap for the drive down?

:iagree:

Woohoo!!

Double :yum::yum:

It'll be good to finally see your new Stang.

No one will see it anyways. ;)

A lot of people just use painters tape, and just do strips across the hood and bumper until its covered

Road wrap is hard to apply, looks like crap, and leaves film. At least in my experience.

Painters tape is the best way, IMO.

I was trying to find that picture of your Z when you tried it. I remember that it didn't work out so well.

Ah yes, now here is a "Painter's Tape Job".......:icon17:

I love it! :bowrofl:

That was Brandi's epic tape job she did for Jared! It held all the way to Fontana from New York though!

Damn! That's an epic tape job!

nobody misses the truck, especially the FL z chicks :rolleyes:

There was a truck at Zdayz last year? :confused:

I must have missed it.




:stirthepot:

fffffffuuuuuuuuuuu :gtfo2:

:icon18: Can't wait to see ya there, buddy.

lol

Don't worry...I remember the Frontier staying behind me on our way to do the photo shoot.

me too, and tires, just need to get the car back from Z1 after they finish the Quaife and diff cooler install and then swap pads and wheels and I'm ready!

I would never waste my time doing that.

Of course you wouldn't.....your Z is already blue.:tup:

Do you guys tape for the Dragon or just the trip down? It seems like a PITA to tape up every time you go out.


A couple of TX guys at Z Fest last year swore by the stuff (road wrap). If you're not worried about accuracy, it looked easy to apply. Cut n' stick lol. What kind of film did it leave on the car? Like, adhesive residue?

We've got two rolls of the stuff and a bunch of painter's tape here... I'll probably use a combo of wrapping the hood and taping the lights.

Most just tape for the ride out there and home, not while they are there or making runs.

I'll take either of these two in the raffle :yum:

Z'z yes....wheels no, please god no.

I would sell them..lol

:iagree:

Everyone just tapes for the trip there and home. I don't recall a single car with tape for the drives around FVR. Just wash it when you get there and you really shouldn't need tape with the proper detail products.

:icon17:

Tape makes for an easy clean up once you get there. A little quick detailer takes care of any residue left, but with the delicate painters tape that shouldn't be an issue.

If it looks like we are going to have good weather for the drive down I will probably tape the front end up.

Yep. I'd probably ask for what they're worth, too, plus shipping. I figure the price I could get, plus shipping, would net me a profit of however much it is to ship four wheels.
