I worked at a detail shop for several years when I was in college (a million years ago) and an obviously highly intoxicated bum walked by one day and said he just rubbed motor (#) oil (#) on his cars when he wanted them to shine nicely. Good tip and its only $2.50 a quart.:eek:

Have you actually used zaino? I'm not a fanboy, the 8 is the first nice car i've owned and its the only wax i've ever used. But I got the kit they sell, clayed it, put on 4 coats with the detailing spray in between as they suggest and it was buttery smooth and had a super deep shine for months....
