Looks about right, no different than any normal off the showroom car, an empty wallet and time lost forever.
Thanks.

Yeah, 4 years old, and still looks showroom new! Personally, I don't consider that time wasted, I think it's time well spent!

(Racer, I know you were just trying to be a sarcastic PITA, but thanks for the instead. And seriously... a hundred bucks of Zaino on a $40k + car, and it's the Zaino that causes the empty wallet?! Puh- leeezzzee!)

Car looks great! Time well spent.



On a side note, I love it whenever Racer post, just so I can check out his avatar.

It's not that you have 83 coats... which is bad enough... it's that you KNOW you have 83 coats.... time to spend some money on GAS !!!!!

One coat of Rejex, or NXT you have the same look, with plenty of time to spare and $$$.

Looks good but with that many coats of Zaino bugs are just sinking into that wax build-up (if you ever have time to drive it between waxing you're going to need a putty knife to get the embedded critters out).

It isn't but the Zaino shills planted on every forum will argue until blue in the face it's better than the second coming of Christ
