    Wow, what a beast! You've got that Tuxedo black popping! Flake is exploding! Well done on that monster!

    I feel your pain and I do know how much efforts it takes. You did great. I would have to lay in bed for a week after a job like yours.

    You could pull it off easy.
    Done a one step last year.
    It was soooo fast and done in 4 hours!

    This year, thought try a one step ceramic. It did not play nice----soooo hard to pull off the Z1!
    Had to use the Pinnacle to clean up the high spots.
    This took me 8 hours to pull off.

    My Take? On big working trucks---Keep it simple and just get Speed or Blackfire One Step!

    Until that Z1 becomes easier to wipe off, I'll never use it on a big truck!

    I totally agree on 3D Speed and Blackfire one step. Majority of my work consist of one step.

    This was a black swirled out 2016 and he wanted corrections.

    If I have a partner and not a one man operation or 20 years younger...I would consider it. BTW.... being only 5'7" certainly dont help. LOL

    Thanks for the honest feedback on the Z1! I nearly picked up a tube when it’s hype train rolled in. Wanted to wait to hear more, mainly about how it behaves as far as bird bomb/water spot etching; hearing it’s potential to be finicky moves it down on my list of stuff to try.

    As a hobbyist, I’ve only got so much time to play in the garage, and when I’m out there - it’s gotta be fun! (Or at least stress reducing, not stress inducing. )

    And awesome work on all that square footage!!!

    I really, really wanted the Z1 to work! The One step to end all one steps...

    Soooo hard to wipe off. I get way more exhausted with this one step polish than doing multi steps.

    This is my third try...I'm getting ticked off and disappointed!

    Doing a straight polish, then a panel wipe and apply ceramic coating would be so much easier and much faster!

    Tom

    Note: In all fairness to the Z1 product---This is a new ground breaking product!

    I know the race is now on who will come up with an easy to wipe off one step ceramic product.
    And it won't be long either!!!
