Wow!!!

That has got to be the cleanest job I've seen!
I used to go to the Porsche Concours competitions and admired the shine and attention to detailing.

Very nice job.
Are your services for hire?

I'm exhausted just from reading the write up. Your car looks amazing C. I also spent 2 days detailing my 545 with Zaino and it'll probably the last time I'll ever do that again. It's hard to justify to the wife that I'm going to burn a nice sunny weekend detailing my car. Only chance is if she has plans or is out of town. haha

I actually gave my Zaino stuff to a mobile detailing service to do my M5 at my work place. Might just stick with that going forward.

Again, beautiful shine on your baby. Congrats!

Nope. 2 ounces in the resevoir will cover the entire car.

Damn it Calton! You're supposed to call me if you're gonna do a detailing day. My car is in serious need of claying and waxing.

Looks great, dude.
