Dude...that looks really, really clean. You did a great job, and with the Zaino, that silver has quite a shine!

I will consider that, of coarse you know with a wax job the waxer has to test drive it down main street to get a good look from the window reflections. Thanks for the compliment though, I will be looking for ya!

Thanks everyone for stopping by and taking a look, and for the compliments. Love the car and this Forum is interesting, informative, and at times down right funny. The posting was unusual, when I reviewed it the first time, somehow I had a pic in there that was not mine, still trying to figure that out. It was web site for a ladies Photography Studio. Anyway, now I know how to post, so more pics will follow I am sure.
