Default when I'm wrong I will admit it

I went out to the garage, found a full can of liquid glass, put it on my car, let it dry and guess what, no chalking, yet I can distinctly remember chalking ( IM guessing it was another product ) I may have tried around the same time. I do know that Zaino does not attract dirt like other products, your car is a perfect example of that. I think liquid glass made the rear of my car look like dirt magnet, I could be wrong on that too, but over the years Zaino has been more than a perfect polish with no chalking, wetter looking than anything else i've tried, 99 % optically clear, great smell when applying, the results speak for themself. I think the Liquid glass was my back up when I didn't feel like waiting to get Zaino Via the mail.
In any case I was wrong about the chalking. Mia Culpa

Maybe it was an old can you had, I remember reading somewhere that they changed the forumla at some point. Before my time though.

while I have enjoyed my share of kicks on 66, I never hit that exact patch. I"m more of a route 61 man myself.

Nice picture, I enjoyed it.

I guss I will have to look into this Zaino stuff. What I really need is something that works well when applied during the evening dew, since I wax after the su goes down, and the trunk surface catches the mosture quickly.

Chalking is one thing I distinctly remember about Liquid Glass.
I remember having to go back over the car to clean off the little white dust flakes.
It always got in the door jam's and in all the open slots around the car.
Thats not to say they have not changed the formula since I have used it.
I used it exclusively between about 1993 to 2001.

Just saw the new Ford trucks have a heated tailgate so your hands don't get cold when you push them
