Beautiful ride. I'm curious about the Zaino polish and its application, can you describe process used. BTW i had a subwoofer go bad a couple of years ago om my '03 with low mileage (40k at the time). I pressed the service dept manager and they gave me a 50 % discount to do the work.

Just had the subwoofer fixed, it was never reconnected it when they serviced it. Quick question does the ML amp have gain controls to turn sub up? I have to max out the bass to really get anything sounding like bass.
As for Zaino I have been using this stuff since 99 when I had my Grand Prix GTP, then Trans Am WS6, Q45, etc.... This stuff rocks! As you can see even white shines really nice, black paint is like dark glass with great shine. Very easy to put on and take off, I can this under direct sunlight without any issues, better for drying to time. Cool thing about this wax is that can layer it with another wax. For example they have Z2 (high gloss polish) and Z5 (swirl and scratch remover), you can apply the first layer of Z5 and then apply Z2 right over that, and then let them both dry for like an hour. Then removal is very easy, no need to put some muscle on it, comes off with ease. Zaino suggests a light smear is all you need vs gooping it with wax. If you plan on using Zaino, you must strip off any old wax that is on the car first by using dawn. Reason is because these wax's molecule bond with each other in resulting with great shine and protection. Also last for a long time too. I had at least 50 coats of Zaino when I had my Trans Am, it was like glass, and dont forget to clay it. Hope this helps...
