I use the liquid ICE between waxes and the only thing i don't like is it does not remove the water spots on my black CM but they don't stand out unless you look hard at the paint. I do want to try the paste ICE and see how that works. I think I'm investing too much time and money in my truck...NAH who am I kidding...the better she looks the more the heads turn!!!!!

ice is ok. personally i use meguairs and ziano products. I recommend Ziano as its a professional grade product. If you have a Porter cable 7424 or anohter buffer...the finishes are professional and they last. ziano is located in NJ, so if youre out of state, youll have to order online.

Finally a Zaino Bro! I have the PC buffer, but I usually just do it by hand when I'm doing my cars. I'll use it on the Tundra though. In fact, I'm way overdue to do the truck. I'll throw a coat on my car every few weeks, but can't ever seem to find time to do the truck.

Just to wash and quick detail, it takes me 3 hours. When I wax it, I'm out there for about 4.5. I couldn't even imagine how long it would take me to remove the wax, apply something else, then wax it again. That HAS to be an 8 hour + job, right???

Nah. 4 if you know what you're doing. However, that only needs to be done *once*. I haven't detailed the Tundra in...8 months? I'll do it soon, but I don't need to take off old polish because it's Zainos. AFA my car, I pretty much never wash it. I keep it so clean, and have so many coats of Zainos on it that I just wipe off any dirt with a damp towel. Whenever I put another coat on, I can probably do it in an hour.

Cool. If you're ever in the Escondido area (Crusin Grand on Friday nights is a good time to find me) I can show you the results of it. Wear sunglasses.

ya, check out the site and just read. Try to invest in a porter cable 7424. its like 200 bucks for the PC and the pad kit. the PC will save you time, will give professional results, and also save your back.

Zaino Store

I have that swirl remover (Z-PC). I'll *assume* it works for swirls (haven't needed it for that), but the stuff is amazing at taking marks off that nothing else will. I highly recommend it.

Stored into favorites. I'll give that a shot next time around I'm buying products. I was just always really scared of using buffers because I've seen horrible jobs that leave haze marks. But I guess as long as you follow directions, you should be good to go.
