There is now a wildfire less than 100 miles from me. We can see the smoke over the mountains in the distance. At least the wind is blowing the fire away from us, for now. No worries yet.

I am exhausted and waiting on the ZCS to cure it looks a little hazy right now but they say once it cures it will be clear. I hope so as I have never used it before and right now I dont like the way it looks but I will recheck it in the morning and take a picture if it looks good. Otherwise I will have to remove it and probably apply more wax. Maybe I will attempt this on the Camaro in a few weeks but I think I can just use M105 on that as its paint is in way better shape than my trucks was.
Sounds like lots of work

Good morning crew. Today I will come home, give Ruby a whore bath (waterless wash) and get her ready to drive to work tomorrow & to a cruise-in right after work. It will be nice to get my permagrin on again. I miss driving Ruby but am glad she is not getting so many miles & so much damage from the daily commute & exposure. I hope it is not such a taxing day at work today. Have a good one crew. We are on the downslope now!

Saying "I'm sooo jealous" would be such an understatement.....

Ok I had to do a little extra buffing to clean up the Zaino clear seal but overall I am happy with the detail results on the big red Silverado. I snapped a few pics this evening.Name:  uploadfromtaptalk1371778114973.jpg

Nice lookin' Silverado Zandron! Ruby got her whore bath & a little spit & polish. We are all ready for our drive in to work in hte morning & then to a local cruise-in. It does not look like any of my club folks will be joining me but that's okay. I will be there (unless the weather turns sour). This time of year most any afternoon/early evening a thunderstorm can pop-up. I still have a little work to do though so, later crew.
