OK, after several mentions of this product in my post about picking up my wife's new Tahoe, I'm going to order some...

 

What products should I pick up? I have an 02 LS Z71 Silverado and of course the 04 Hoe. Both of them are BLACK!

 

Thanks for any replies.

just check out www.zainobros.com and see what all looks good for you ...

 

I'd say do just like he says on the site, wash it with Dawn, clay-bar it, then polish-lok it, and then put several coats of Z7 on :lol:

 

It's a lot of work but the results speak for themselves....

Being your cars are black you will want to look at the following products. ZFX or Z-1 (get the ZFX) Z-5, Z-6 and Z-7. If you never clayed your car I would do that for the best surface prep, that is Z-18. You can read about these products at www.zainobros.com

In spring and fall I do the following for my black vette: wash with dawn, claybar, wash with z7, z5, z6, z2, z6, z2, z6. I use zfx with the z5 & z2 to minimize drying time so I can do it all in one day. I wash the vette weekly with z7 and add a couple coats of z2 & z6 every other month in the summer. A California car duster helps keep the dust down between washings.

 

With my daily driver white Av, I leave out the z5, z6 and only wash the truck about every 2-3 weeks so I can maintain that classic "patina of brown" that looks so good on trucks.

I used Zaino on the last truck - haven't done anything to the new one - need to before Winter. While there is good advice here from previous postings - www.ls1.com has a showcar and detailing forum - there are quite a few Zaino users there - so if you want TONS of advice and lots of chat and history about the products go check them out as well.

Thanks for the comments. I did go over and check out the forums on the ls1.com site. Man those guys are nuts about detailing their rides...

 

I think that I will still give the Zaino products a shot.

      Joke Thread

      Fred was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young pullets, and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs He kept records, and any rooster not performing went into the soup pot and was replaced. This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bell had a different tone, so he could tell from a distance, which rooster was performing. Now, he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report by just listening to the bells. Fred's favourite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen, but this morning he noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all! When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover. To Fred's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one. Fred was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the City Show and he became an overnight sensation among the judges. The result was the judges not only awarded old Butch the "No Bell Piece Prize," but they also awarded him the "Pulletsurprise" as well. Clearly old Butch was a politician in the making. Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the unsuspecting populace and screwing them when they weren't paying attention. Vote carefully in the next election, you can't always hear the bells.

      High Country Suburban build confirmation

      By 3CarSeatDad · Posted

      Can someone confirm if the GM order workbench terminal is able to validate a custom build sequence:   1) Initialize the Allocation Base: Open a new vehicle build queue, select the 2026 Chevrolet Suburban 4WD, and pick the High Country (3LZ Preferred Equipment Group).   2) Select the Diesel Powertrain: Go directly to the engine configuration screen and choose RPO code LZ0 (3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel). Ensure it maps to the MHS 10-speed automatic transmission.   3) Deploy the Seating Swap: Navigate to the Interior Options screen and enter RPO code ATT to replace the standard captain's chairs with the power-release 60/40 bench seat. Because you are not trying to force a separate luxury or air-suspension bundle, the standard, premium D07 Fixed Floor Console remains active. The system will accept this change immediately without triggering a warning message.   3)Apply Heavy-Duty Hauling Capability: Input RPO code NHT (Max Trailering Package). The commercial terminal will automatically bundle the required trailering hardware and software modules to support the diesel engine's maximum towing capacity.   5) Layer the Premium Tech and Glass: Separately add code C3U (Panoramic Power Sunroof) and code UKL (Super Cruise) to the order screen.   6) Run the Final Validation: Click the "Validate Order" button at the bottom of the interface.

      Looking at ordering a '26 WT because I want a std cab, std bed

      By revmanii · Posted

      Spent the last hour or 2 googling and reading up on the spacer thing. I don't like the loss of thread contact on the slip on spacers, but it appears you can get "extended" lug nuts that reach into the hole of the wheel to get back the lost threads. Looks like the only true hubcentric slip on spacers are at least .375". I'd want as little as I could get away with and don't want to cause other clearance issues going any thicker. Bora seems to offer what appears to be a well made .375" spacer and extended lug nuts. I searched here and did find a couple threads recommending Bora. But not cheap. By the time I buy spacers and lugs, new TPMS sensors, then pay a tire shop to install the new sensors, I suspect I'm going to be in over $400. Thinking about running out and getting some washers to put behind the wheel to see if .375" is enough to clear calipers, turn lock to lock without rubbing, and to see if the wheels/tires look strange pushed out a little. This would just be to check fitment.

      Road Master Active Suspension

      By Core-Lokt · Posted

      Roadmaster makes some quality parts; I have their sway bar. I considered the RAS, but I ended up bagging. I didn't know what kind of ride I'd get with RAS, and the bags have interior jounce bumpers, so I can run 0 pounds pressure. I figured I'd have the best of normal suspension ride with assist on-demand. But it seems you got pretty much the same in one item.
