Just got my Black 01 Z back from my local high end detail guy...had him paint correct (spiderweb scratches, swirl marks, etc...) and ceramic coat my baby...
18 year old paint on a car that has been garaged much of its life (23k miles) came out amazing! I never realized how difficult it is to own, and keep clean a black car, but the process took him 3 solid days, and it is astonishing! ....and NOT cheap! Lol
Thank you! Guy does amazing work, and he had three people on my car for a solid 3 days! He had multiple stages of buffing and polishing, followed by the application of the ceramic coating. I had to let it sit inside for two days after, not getting it wet, to cure.... it was like a Gremlin! lol...I could not believe the difference afterward, it looks like a sheet of glass.
Amazing! Can you ballpark what it cost? I am guessing $1200.
My first 2 vettes were black and I loved putting in the time making them shine because it just looked so damn good.
Coming from black it is nice to have silver now. Probably the easiest color to keep clean, total other end of the spectrum.

2 grand with two year coating warranty. The previous owner babied it as well, but unfortunately had a guy detail the car for him and didn’t use the “two bucket” method wash and it had a lot of minute surface scratches that show up under the right light conditions.
Wow, they did an awesome job. Your car looks great.

Thank you, guys! It has been raining everyday since bringing her home, and I am afraid to get it wet -- so she has been sitting pretty in my garage the entire time! Making me crazy! Lol
