3) Disregard the relected pile of Christmas trash.

-Clayed with Z18 and the Z6 motion lotion.

Question... I thought you were NOT supposed to wax a new car for at least 6 months or so to let the paint cure, harden or whatever. Yet, I see a lot of guys here on ClubLexus like yourself doing a complete process on their relatively new cars. What about this 6 month "waiting period" theory with a new car? A bunch of BS or what?
By the way, your IS looks friggin great man!!!

i just applied menzerna on my car... has anyone compared zaino and menzerna to see the difference? i also recomend getting an orbital buffer, and i mean a REAL one not the 30 dollar kind you see at pepboys. Made the process alot easier.
