Some one give me a cookie. I cleaned out my garage to store our Prius in.

    I've only ever owned used cars before. Had no real reason to take pride in the appearance before. Now that I have a new car I"m gonna hand wash it more often and look into polishing it. I looked up Zaino polish. Wow, nearly six hours to apply, according to some one else who tried it for the first time.

    Congrats!
    wish I had a garage!

    BTW, it should NOT take you 6 hours to apply your zaino on a NEW car. Just hand wash with DAWN to remove any grease and go. Read the directions on the Zaino site!

    Let's see... Dawn wash, claybar, wash again, 3 coats of Zaino, mandatory beer breaks... yeah, 6 hours can be fairly accurate.

    Yea but you don't have to do it again until 6 months later. I did mine with 3 layers and the water still bead off after 4 months.
