Do you realize Zaino would cost less for the whole treatment system, and you would be able to continue to retreat your car several times a year and have some left over.

I'd like to see a photo of this paint, if you don't have orange peel then you'll have one of a very few of any model GM makes and one of the first with the 5th Gen.

Away at work, but will be taking a better look at it for sure, only thing I noticed that the hood latch was yellow and black so it may have overspray on a black latch, and in the door hinge area its a bit light. the peel never noticed,both my trucks are fine ???????
