This morning's pic. Chadwick'd my '99 triple black over the weekend, for the first time, also using their paint correction. Saturday I went to a local dyno day, in the rain. Got some tractor trailer spray on the highway, regular spray from driving and other cars too. Chadwick'd it last night and took all of about 15 minutes, in my garage, at 9 pm. I'm a believer. I'm sure there are other similar products available, but I'll stick with this stuff. Oh, and plenty of the guys at the dyno day commented on my paint and finish, even after the rainy drive in.
Do as you wish, because I am! I know what my results are and I know how much time I had to invest to get this result. My time is important to me and I don't have as much as I'd like to spend doing what I want to do. If I can use something that costs a little more but saves me time to spend doing other things (with my family), then I'm all for it. My way is no better than any other way. It works for me, gives me the results I want and doesn't consume too much time.

Time is a major reason (besides great results) is what I love about Chadwick's, 20 minutes including wheels (and yes the barrels also) and I am done !!!!! Love to drive it a bit better than working on it !!!!!

You mean the guy who claims the brilliance of his finish is due to the superiority of the zaino that he uses? Your vette and truck look good, but hardly out of this world good. Go enter a car show and show us the winning trophy if it's so great.
Until then all you've actually proven to us is that you're old, stuck in your ways, and have no respect for anyone who you perceive to be younger than you. You're flat out wrong that turtle wax makes products as good as zaino or other premium brands. You may like the way your car looks, but that doesn't mean it's actually better as anyone else's.

you said the only other car on the forum close to as good as yours was ET's. how is than not saying that yours is better than everyone else's?

Oh, one more outstanding vehicle that rivals ALL vehicles on this forum for looks is the red one owned by dewoof01.
Definitely a twin to Bill's(evil twin) Vette.
I usually call them as I see them, and most showing pics of their Vette on this forum come no where near looking bright and shiny like those two, or for that matter, my two.
Don't believe me?
Thumb through some of the threads where pics are present, and you will see what I'M talking about.

There's a reason the pros don't use Turtle Wax...

What I would say is, If the shoe fits, wear it.

What are you, about 16 years old?
If you don't like the fact that I happen to be right on this issue, perhaps it would be a good idea to put me on your ignore list, and that goes for anyone else of the same opinion.

I would have expected a more mature response from a corvette owner.

Melting Slicks
I went ceramic and never looked back, it's been a year and nothing sticks to the surface. Just filtered water at the coin op weekly and wipe down the wheels and exhaust, finished. I never have to touch the paint surface.
