X5 & X4 Get the Zainos's Treatment
The 2001 4.4 got the full Zainos treatment started with the z-7 wash and z-18 clay, followed by Mequiars mirror glaze #9 swirl remover 2.0 to touch up a few spots. Then Zainos z-2 with zfx followed by a z-6 wipe down then z-5 with zfx then repeated 3 times ending with z-6 on top . then I applied black wow to the black trim.
Im pretty pleased with the results. Im not a professional detailer and although it's a little time consuming the Zaino's product's are easy to use. The results are far superior to some detail jobs I've paid for (IMHO)
The Cart (I like to refer to it as the x-4) got a good washing with z-7 and 1 coat of the z-2 with zfx I had left over and 2 coats of z-5 with zfx with z-6 on top.
I would like to thank everyone who has left very explicit instructions on detailing on this site. I read almost all of the post and it saved me alot of headaches.Name: 2001 4.4 x5 2000 x4 x5 world.jpg Views: 676 Size: 185.2 KB

PS: I like & use Zaino, but don't have the patience or
elbow grease for that many steps & apps. Yours looks
titz, however.

Heres a picture of my first X... of course it's burgundy (actually black cherry)
Name: xb photo.jpg Views: 478 Size: 290.5 KB Just Retired : 2005 scion xb 34 mpg hwy 32 city, mileage 46k paid $14,400 in October 2004 sold her for $13,200 last week.
A buddy of mine pulled the paint code off the toaster (XB) and painted the x4 (golf cart) the same color for me .
