MINI Motoring

It's a MINI blog adventure.

Well, holy shit!

I got something splattered on the side of my car that wouldn't come off no matter how I washed and washed (even with Z7). It looked almost like tiny little specks of mud. I bet it was concrete or clay from the construction around here. Anyway, I bought some Zaino Z-18 clay and got to work. It was very easy to get rid of those spots. After feeling how incredibly smooth the paint was in that spot, I had to do the entire car. All in all, it took me about 30 minutes. I can't believe all of the crap that came off of my paint. The clay was dark reddish brown when I was finished.

Of course, I had to redo my Z1 and Z2 since claying removes EVERYTHING except for the paint. I know it will look amazing like it did before, but this time it will be even smoother. It was very smooth before, so that's saying quite a bit. In the morning, I'll buff off the Z2 and put another coat on in the afternoon. Next weekend, I guess I'll do two more coats so I'll be back to where I was before the claying.

Woo hoo for Zaino. They really do make amazing stuff.
