Greetings all,
New Max Owner here. I've been lurking around your board for about a year now, and last week I got my 2k1 Max super black
5 spd. What can I say this beast is Phenomenal. Just wanted to thank you all for you in depth and enlightened topics, they were a big factor in my choice.

You need to take care of your paint from day 1, Spend some of that hard earned money and buy Zaino bros wax. www.zainobros.com
As careful as you might be washing your car and waxing it, the paint is such crap that it will deteriorate quickly.
And with Black, you see everything.

You just need products z1, z2, and z5.
Comes about to 40 dollars. It is worth it. I have no pictures because i am poor and cant afford a digi cam. But there is somone here who has a black max and Zainoed it.
Use SEARCH > 5th GENERATION> ZAINO topic

Zaino

I've had my black Max for about 3 months and have just Zainoed for the first time. My initial impression is that I should have used it quicker - I've never seen anything like it. The longer you wait, the more you'll have to screw around removing hard water spots, bird droppings and bugs that have stained your finish (the clear coat seems pretty fragile).

I used the clay bar, Z1, Z2, Z5 and the gloss enhancer. A lot of work, but the results are great. My big question now is how durable and protective it will be - can't be any worse than the stuff you buy in the store though!
