I am also interested in this!

Just got my red hot ZLE home and want to do a full PC and coating as well! Would love to save the trouble of trial and error! Thanks!

Just used my new Rupes 15mm Bigfoot for the fist time on my daily driver today. Its in another league compared to my PC. Much more comfortable to use, but over 2x expensive so it should be.

I was hoping for a little more detail of the ACTUAL ZL1 correction opposed to the philosophy discussion. I still enjoyed the video, but it left me not knowing the details of what was done to the Camaro, specifically.

They are fantastic machines for sure. We were among just 3 detailers in the USA who got to work with them first before they ever came into the states, and we also helped with prototype feedback on several other of their machines. When I visited their Milan, Italy factory back in 2013, I was really impressed with how they develop and manufacture everything in-house. Well worth the money, and we sell a LOT of them!

Well, some videos are for education, and some for simply watching. This one was more for people to get a better understanding of a) the paint condition on these (and other) cars, and b) what goes into developing the processes to get the best results.

Thank you for the videos. I have a blue ZL1 and would like to do PC on it, thinking of trying it myself. Can you please PM some tips/information that you might have to help from the Camaro project? Esoteric prefers Rupes, over Griot's, what makes it better for you? I have used many products in past and have a battery powered RO buffer but thinking of moving up.

Thanks in advance

George
