Your car looks great, however, I'm wondering on the last photo what's on the top of driver's side rear hatch? It looks like someone took a tube of toothpaste to it.

I am pretty sure its a reflection of something because there is nothing on the car and I took the pics right after some Zaino treatments. It does look like toothpaste though.

That appears to be the reflection of the light pole on the street corner behind the car.

Very nice. I just received my shipment of Zaino and look forward to applying it. Screwed up my top trying to get some tree stuff off.
Hope this gets all the swirls and scratches out.
Anyway, good looking ride!!!!!!!!

jaxgator is absolutely correct. The position of the sun has nothing to do with it. He said a reflection, not a shadow. If you look closely, you can see the light pole arm with the light on the end of it just below the middle of the rear window.

The sun may be coming form "the other way" but that IS the pole reflection.

It's not the sky or the sun. It's the "dry heat" that's cooking the polish!
