Default 1st Detailing/Polish

It'll never be cleaner than it is today since we're approaching our first winter and this is my daily driver. Also, hope to be wheelin' this spring and we know where that leads.

Anyway, I feel much better now that I have the first layers of Zaino and chrome polish on her. Didn't want to go into the snow season without some protection on it to help weather the cold and wet. I've had her two weeks now and figured it was time to apply a good dose of TLC.

Since it was raining/overcast all day, I spent the afternoon Zainoing the H3 and polishing all the chrome. That is one bigazz vehicle to clean and polish even if it is the smallest Hummer.[/align][/align]Notice in these pics - no swirl marks in the paint. None. I wouldn't let the dealer prep the car when they delivered it because the techs always use harsh, dirty rags and water to wash the vehicles and swirl the crap out of the paint. The Hummer was filthy when I picked it up and the dealer wasn't happy having to deliver it like that butI promised I'd give them a stellar rating on the delivery survey and I did. But look how nice the paintis after I washed and polished it properly.

Only had time for two. Zaino is normally pretty easy to apply but it is especially easy on a fresh,clean, new coat of paint.

Thanks, guys.
