did a 5hr detail

Woke up this morning, off work, nothing to do, I planned to wash my truck but somehow i started getting into hard detail but right now its worth it!

rinse wash & scrub with Black Magic carwash formula, dry down, Zaino clay bar, another wash off but with more detail, another dry down, then a good buff with Zaino wax, tire scrubbing & black magic tire shined and rims removed for a good detail and polish, wheel well scrub, then a interior detail but no pics of that, but heres the result!

I love their products, my black 2002 Pontiac Trans Am WS6 looks especially good after having a detail with Zaino. Most people are about using MEguires stuff, i use Meguires on my interiors but i prefer Black Magc and Zaino on the body. The Zaino Z18 clay bar works especially good, anything like a little bit of tar or any spec thats on the clear coat that doesn't belong, clay bar will remove it, i just walked outside & my truck wow'd me lol, so shiny after all that work.

check out http://www.zainostore.com for more of their great auto care products

When I first bought my truck on August 3rd 2005, I drove it around for a couple days, then had it parked in the driveway for 5 days doing a huge detail to it, I did what I did to it here but alot quicker

Heres a couple of the result after my first detail to Triton

Great point ws6...

Once you have your vehicles in a good 'starting' shape, it's much easier to keep them up and cut your time down...

For example, a full top to bottom detail on my 05' is now right around 4 to 6 hours... the first time I detailed it, it took better than 18 hours over a couple of days.
