Just wanted to comment on how great your car looks...

And by the way, your in-car video of the orange one you sold on ebay a while back pushed me over the edge and into my first Z - and its my favorite color orange! I must've watched your video about 30 times...

Looks good.

Two things though: Buffing will not get rid of the run. With runs, you carefully take a razeor blade and shave the raised part of the run off. Almost at the same angle of the panel. Be careful not to come at it with too much of an angle or you will cut into the paint. Then take some 1500 or 2000 grit and carefully wetsand by spraying water as you sand. Use a foam block as your fingers will cause un-even sanding. Then buff it and your done.

In regards to your stickers. Please wait at least two months to put them on. Maybe more. Otherwise if you ever want to remove them, you will also remove the clear coat

Looks like Maaco did a great job for the price.

Hey Mezz, I PM'd you.

Dude, You are so close to Cleveburg that you could easily make it for the convention (Sep. 28 - Oct.3) Check my signature for the link.

We also have lots of Z drivers in Northern Ohio, if you are interested in getting hooked up (http://www.clevelandzclub.com )

I going to try to make it as well. I am from Akron, and now live in Michigan, so the trip to Berea will be easy.

The convention hotel is just straight up I-77 at I-480, and only the car show is in Berea. Some locals are just going to commute every day ( after getting 3 hours of sleep.)

I'm glad I was able to help push you over the edge.....:classic: Thanks for your comments, what Z did you wind up getting..any pictures.

Also thanks Zero for the advice, I had no idea it could affect the clear coat.

PS...A quick edit....JerseyJoe, just found your car in another post...It is really nice looking...Glad you found an Orange one.

I may have to take the 4 hour trip north then becasue I have seen exactly one Z down here in Cincy in the past year

Great job - they stay in buisness for a reason. If the painter is good he makes good money and lays down good paint. Simple as that!

I had my Audi painted at Maaco a couple weeks ago and will run the Z past them for an estimate after I do a little more body work. My wife drives the Audi and was pleased with the results. Initally there were a couple dust specks on one door and they corrected the issue to our satisfaction.

What's with the resurection of the dead threads?

I have no clue but everytime I get critical, I end up pissing someone off so I'm keeping my opinions to myself
