Meh, maybe I'm completely wrong, someone else chime in here.
Yeah that is what i thought, but someone posted it's ok. I will find out today and see if i can do anything about that. If not, then i will just detail the inside of the car. My zaino AIO, and CS came in today by UPS. If body shop tells me i can't do anything like that to it, then i'll just wash the car with regular z7 car wash.. and when the body shop says i can put the clay bar and stuff on, then i'll do my COMPLETE detail.

BTW i notice your in NJ. I would love to see your angel eyes in person one day, they look sick from your sig.

Yeah? i was thinking that as well. so.

Z7 car wash
Clay bar
Z7 car wash again then dry
zaino AIO
zaino CS


This is the products i have. aside from my z9 and z-10 leather cleaner and rim cleaner. i'll ditch the dawn
