i think i started playing tennis before i could walk.
i started playing tournaments and be more competitive when i was 14.... but at that point, i already knew that the next step was so far beyond my reach...i just played locally.
my friend is still on the tour.. i live vicariously through him

that pretty much told me that i'm not going anywhere with tennis

well most people never notice mine, its normally only me. I didn't show my car at HIN b/c I couldn't stand it and when I went there and saw others I realized mine wasn't anywhere near as bad as some that were there..

yeah you'll always still see them.. even after I had it buffed professionally you could still see them... but I think with lots of Zaino it looks very sweet.

i have 5 coats of z2, 3 coats of z5 (swirl remover), wedged in..with z6 sprayed between each coat..
doesn't matter..scratches still show...

if i were to keep the car, i'd use dawn to strip it back down (again), and this time use a porter cable or something to see how much of the scratches i could get out.

too time consuming though..i'd rather just drive

You have to be very careful with the orbital b/c our clear coats are way thin... You will always see red..

Yeah after winter I will strip with dawn and clay bar...The new Z5 is way better than the old stuff where you may not need to use z2 anymore.. You use the ZFX right?
