Do you get Sal to send you Zaino in larger bottles or is he just 100% never going to do that for anyone. I use Zaino on my 5 cars and im just sick and tired of having to go pick it up over and over and over. Some products like the spray and Z8 go quickly and I could use a gallon or two at one. I keep asking but hes just wont give in. Everyone else will do that for large orders but Zaino just loves sending out a zillion little bottles instead of one large bottle.
Just wondering.
Anyhow nice work. I do this stuff for my self on a personal basis and I must say you do the three product lines that I have sitting in my garage at all times. I started straying away from Pinnacle and Zymol just because it all burns off so quickly and Zaino is like armor for your paint.
Ever try Menzerna ceramic clear polish and then MFJ on a MB with ceramic clear paint? It really is amazing. I started using that on my SL55 (black) and it is a bit slicker and has a more deep true shine than Zaino. Zaino on a black car can make the paint a bit plastic like with more shine than depth. FMJ really has a deep beautiful look.
Great work though. Know that took a good 5-6 hrs for sure!

BTW-thanks for the 380 comment. Sentimental favorite.

Ricky, you know what kind of music I mostly listen to and the volume level needed to appreciate it. I've had no problems with heat at all with the JL Amps. They are bulletproof and can take hours of abuse without a melt down. I could have a cap installed, but the light dimming is minimal in the dash at extreme volume levels, the headlights are not affected at all. Just quality amps, subs, and speakers get the job done here. Everyone who has listened to this system is very impressed with how clean and loud it is, which was my goal with this setup.

You must be deaf, beaten, bruised, stinky and have shredded vocal cords after a show like that Ricky.
I wish that tour was coming to Florida. I hear there are more unannounced dates. As far as I know there's only 1 battery in the trunk of my E55. Under the hood is all engine man!
