Bet the MDX took most of your time. They look fantastic!
BTW, why don't you get that radar detector hard wired. They only charged me $26 at a local auto stereo shop. Took about 45 minutes.

Jax! The name of the place I used was Rolling Sounds. They have about a half-dozen locations here. Look in the phone book; any auto stereo shop can do it.
BTW, I did check the price at another shop and it was $49.99.
EDIT: Yours looks too low. I have mine all the way up the windshield and just to the left of the mirror. The manual states the higher the better or something like that.

Nice job on the cars, especially the wife's. Looks like she drives it hard or a lot with the chips on the hood. You did a great job breathing life into it. I like your wheels. What are they?.

You need very little Zaino, so drying time should be very short. I suggest Z5 Pro for the MDX, it will hide the swirl marks and enhance the shine and depth. I just used it on My Black 997 and it looks great. By the way, the P car look terrific, Zaino is like magic.

NICE WORK!
I knew you'd like the Zaino and the new Z8 spray! Very glossy and reflective w/o having that "plastic-wrap" look like some sealants can look like.
The Z5-Pro may take several coats to hide many defects, so you may have to remove the defects first. I've never used Zaino's swirl-removing polish, but I hear it does work well.
With ZFX, which is the correct way to use Zaino will cut curing time and helps bond with the finish.
I hope you had enough to treat the wheels. This way, brake dust will come off a whole lot quicker and easier.
Let us know how well it does for you in the rain and sun in time. Up keep with Z8 is a breeze! Notice how slick the finish is now?
Have a great day!
