BTW, IMHO, M-E-G-U-I-A-R-S clay bars aren't the way to go. To soft and sticky. I always use Mother's (sp?)

Don't mess around get Zaino and don't look back. Wonderful products. I was introduced to Zaino here on the forum. I have used A LOT of products over the last 35 years and Zaino makes them all look bad. And I have used some products not available to the public. This stuff is better than anything else and last 10 times longer. Merry Christmas. www.zainobros.com

I use Zaino like a lot of these guys and gals. It's easy to put on, easy to take off and it's DEEP. It ain't cheap but neither is premium gas, supercar tires or anything with "Corvette" written on it. Sure, you can get Meguiars or Turtle Wax at Walmart but why would you? Oh, and the clay and Porter Cable advice are absolutely right.

After my dealer applied the so-called "Northwest Treatment" package, I took one look at the results and pointed out 3 spots where it didn't look right. They must have hired some high school dropout to do the job...I should have gotten my money back.
Later I discovered a spot about 1 foot square that was totally missed...finish was very dull. I bought some Maguires NXT and did the job myself with some great results. NOW it looks professionally done...

Call Nick at Detailers Paradise. He set me up with Einzetts polishes and a Porter Cable Buffer. I preped the car by removing all wax and claybaring. Then polished in stages. It will make the car look new. IM me for his numer. I used this method on my Black ZR-1.

I want the finish on my car to look better than it did when it was sitting in the show room of Lone Star Chevrolet. Any of the Meguires products will give your car a great looking finish, without a lot of work.
