dfw area zaino detailer?

looking to go the Zaino road on my 06 Atlas Grey C2S and would like to get a pro to get me started (clay bar needed, as well as a good polish to remove minor swirls/marring) and then I am confident that I am capable to maintain

anyone know of a local detailer that works with Zaino products, or has experience and is will to work them?? (I can supply the product easily enough)

please, not a Zaino vs. [insert your favorite product name here] discussion

thanks

Sounds great. I look forward to it.

Wait till you hear what BBS993TT has to say about his 993 Turbo I'm polishing right now, I've spent about 5 hours on it already and the paint is looking flawless, nothing like a pure black paint....

I've still got to polish the top surfaces and then finish it all down and it will look even more amazing. Should be done sometime tomorrow afternoon.

I come to Houston at least once a month, I'm moving in two days so I'm not planning another trip for about 4 weeks.

I'll let you know next time I'm coming down.

Josh just completed correcting the paint on my black 993tt. I chose to pick it up last night rather than watching election results .

All I can say is, "WOW!" I truly didn't know black paint could look so good and didn't think my paint had that much room for improvement, but was I ever wrong. What a difference.

Great work, Josh. I'll be back.

Thanks, I'll try to get some pics posted up soon.

It's always a pleasure making a fine car look the way it's supposed too...

Have fun at the palooza, you'll have the best looking car there I'm sure......

Josh

Here's the 993 Turbo. I won't go into a lengthy write up of the process but here's the gist of it.


This is how the car looked pre wash in the sunlight.








Now after a thorough two bucket washing and claybaring, I can assess the damage better under 500W halogens.





After polishing with the rotary and Menzerna SIP.

Even though the paint looks perfect I still finish it off with one more polishing with a very fine polish and pad to really jewel the surface to ensure there are absolutely no buffer trails left behind for a perfect finish.

Some afters with poor sunlighting due to cloud cover....
