Overlays and Zaino by eagle75

Overlays:
 
The Grafxwerks overlays are reasonably priced and very high quality—-perfect fit, don't fade, etc. Be sure you have them lined up right before you apply them. The adhesive is very sticky. Spritzing the surface that you will be applying them to with water, as they recommend, helps get it right before applying pressure.
 
Zaino:
 
I Zaino my cars about 4 times a year; hood, top, and trunk/spoiler more often. I always start with Z-1, then Z-2 or Z-5 (I really like the new Z-5 Pro--Z-5 really does eliminate swirls and spider-web), then Z-6 spray, then another coat a few hours, or a day later. I keep it looking good after washes with Z-8 Spray Seal. I’ve never put more than 3 coats of anything on. If you go over to the Edmunds Zaino forum, you’ll find folks over there who have put 30-50 coats on. Too much work for me.
 
Ice:
 
I tried Ice on my wife’s black GTP, but don’t like it at all. It goes on easy and comes off easy and doesn’t leave a powder residue as advertised (neither does Zaino), but it leaves an oily residue. I followed the directions, but it leaves oily streaks that took a lot of Zaino and elbow grease to remove. Maybe others like it, and maybe I didn’t know what I was doing, but I’ll stick with Zaino.

I have read, and experienced first hand that when you do any kind of waxing or polishing of a "dark" colored vehicle, if you get the "greasy" or "swirl" marks on your car, the best way to get rid of them is to DAMPEN a clean soft cloth, and go over those areas with it. It takes the marks right out.

Well I still have almost a full bottle. I'll try that before I pitch it. Thanks!

I may not have current info, but to my knowledge the online site is the only place to get it.

I am considering trading in my 02 GTP ofr an 06 GXP. I have had a front cover on my last 3 GTPs and have had great luck. Does GM make a front bra for the 06 GXP?

Yes. Check with Ken over at:
http://www.carbras.com
 
  
Great service and support. The front of that white GXP on their site
looks familiar too

I personally like just the hood portion. Fully dressed, bra's look a bit too 80's-ish to me...
  
Here are some pics of mine with it on.

I've yet to call Ken about the bra. I know it looks old fashion, but here on the gulf coast bugs are a way of life (and gravel trucks as well). I have a message out to Ken at carbras though, but the dealer parts man said that the GXP and the special edition won't take a bra because of the difference in grilles. He ran it through his computer with the VIN numbers. Does someone out there have a full front bra on their GXP?
