Started with Pinnacle Blue clay.

Then applied Klasse All In One

Finished up with Pinnacle Souveran Paste.

Oh so silky smooth!!!

Did it look BETTER than the day you picked it up from the dealership? How many miles before the first clay/waxing

I would say it did look better.

About 3 months and 600 miles after purchase.

It needed clay in a few spots where there were some black bumps. The Klasse AIO is a great product and the Pinnacle Souveran was easy on easy off and really added to the wet look. The pictures do not even do the car justice.

Just bought some AIO recently, can't wait to try it out. Bought it because it's supposed to be a good sealant too.

question, do you think you could apply Klasse AIO and then finish off with Zaino Grand Finale Detail Spray? The latter adding more shine/wet look? Or should I just use the Zaino Gloss Enhancer on top of KAIO?

You could do either. Whatever is the base is what is really protecting your paint. I use the gloss enhancer and like it. Gives a crazy slick finish and smells good. Gloss is pretty insane afterwards too

Thanks man, that's the plan then. KAIO coating every 3 months and Gloss Enhancer or Finale Spray for quick detail - shine up.

I'd followup the KAIO with a wax or another product. KAIO won't last very long on it's own....definitely not 3 months.

Question

RanT, was curious if your black top was OEM special upgrade or after market.
Also what do you use to detail it? Same as the white paint?

I also have "ditto" scheme on my 2008 Z4 M Coupe.

Thanks...
