I had never heard of the product.
Once I joined the forum, I find many use it.

I don't, because I like the products I am using.
Putting a ceramic coating on, will be a new experience for me.
Just waiting for some warmer days.
Probably late April or sometime in may.

The 2017 Grand Sport I have used Zaino on. The remainder of the collection I use Adams Products on with good results.

Never did that since I have owned the Vette, and they look crappy.

I had been thinking about different wheels, but I like the stock ones enough to keep them,and cleaning the gunk on the inside of them should make them look even better.

The finishing touch (again, something I have never done) will be a ceramic coating, to finish it off.

When Bill (evil twin) was here , he posted many pictures of his super clean torch red toy, and the finish was unbelievable.
He never told any of us just what he used on it, but my guess is cer
I hope when finished, my mag red will look as good.

From what i can figure out he was banned from the site. In my opinion because of too many snowflakes could not stand the truth. And once you questioned ET you were in trouble.
