Brand New Triple black C6 Z06

My best friend picked this up recently, and let me borrow it for a few days. I took the opportunity to clean it up for him, as he uses it as a daily driver, and doesn't really care about it that much, especially since it's black. It had some minor scratches that I was able to get out. It stays outside all the time, so I thought I would give it some TLC and protection. This is his slowest car, as he has a 600whp 2005 Ford GT and a 2002 ZO6 w/550whp on motor (setup for a huge shot of nitrous).

Process was:
Wash
Vacuum
PO106FF
Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant
24 hours later Pinnacle Souveran
Store bought Glass Cleaner with Cobra Microfiber for the glass (GOODBYE STREAKS!)

Some of the before (these brakes dust really badly. The owner is thinking about switching to ceramic pads)






After
No pressure washer at the house, so it went to the do it yourself car wash to get rid of the excess dust:




I think the car looks really evil with the all black:



Some reflection shots:








And of course, his GT

Good job! Nothing like a shinney black car. I like the car with the black wheels.

It looks nice, but I like your wheels better I like the black too I guess.....makes it look stealthy.





For some reason while I was looking at these pics I had the Night Rider theme repeating in my head and pictured the red light moving back and forth on the front of the vette He should name it "Kitt"....

Nice clean up on the Z06.

BTW- it is not a triple black. It is black on black. Triple black refers to black paint, black interior, and black convertible top.

dengood1,
The chrome wheels were what came with this particular Z06. The negotiated deal included him switching to the competition grey wheels, and after the deal was made, they said they could not do the switch. The owner of the dealership got involved and offered to powdercoat the wheels. The owner of the car did not like the chrome wheels at all for this car.

Extremedetail,
Yeah, I was actually going for a play on words with the whole triple black, (black paint, black interior, and black "top" with the dark tinted windows ) but it was probably more a quadruple black with the black wheels also. There are no convertible Z06's

Meghan,
Ask and you shall receive:
