Claybar, Several (6)coats of z2 and a topcoat of mothers carnuba for some pop, Here's how she showed at Showfest, Rippin gears, and Relaxed All Star Event this summer.

 

I see you cleaned enough of the HHR away to reveal an SS under there! Nice. Keep going bro, still some of that crap left on your car ;-) seriously though it looks fantastic! Really nice job. Why so many "Z2" rubs?

 

Layers of z2 increase the depth of shine, giving it a "wet" look.

 

Lots of clearcost, wetsanding and polishing is what actually makes a car shiny but looks nice!

 

Looks great!

 

Hhr ss doesn't have brembo's?

 

I thought they did too???

 

It was an option on them.

 

Interesting I did not know that.

 

Actually too much clear between your flashes can cause solvent to be trapped ( micro bubbles or solvent pop).

But yeah reg paint maintenance- buffing/polishing makes the paint pop

Never used z2 but have loved their AIO, and their tire gloss was kinda impressive.
