whats Zaino Z-5 and Z-6 i take it its a wax, but is it a special kind? i use nano wax on my car, would that work too.
good writte up
Zaino is the brand of car wax... considered one of the best, if not the best, wax/polish on the market. Check it out. I'd type the website, but the moderators may not like that much... so, just search.

Glad it turned out nice. I re-did mine due to a dealership mess-up (don't ask). I'll post pictures of the new one, it looks great!
This will be useful. Car stereo theives scratched mine up. So instead of giving the dealer $170 to replace, I'm going to repaint it myself. Thanks for the write-up!
wow thats cool since i did this a few months ago and i thought people would hate it. but it looks good. i did the same thing with the trim under the dash guages too as you can see in my avatar
i bought a quart of the pb5 (factory code for electric blue) from napa and it was only $25 and i used a cheap airbrush from walmart that was $20 and i have only used about 4oz to do the radio bezel and the guage trim. oh, ull need some clear too to make it shiny. heres what mine looks like:
Pedro. The area under the guages looks fantastic. Wouldn't work in my color but it still looks bloody badass.
Whites97, thanks for the guide. Very in depth. I have a feeling it'll look great in patriot blue. nice-n-dark. I love the result you got using dupli-color spraypaint. I'm going to airbrush it myself.... Gotta makeup for my lacking paint skills.
I just painted my radio bezel flat black in my flame red and it looks awesome. I'll try to get some picks up soon. I plan on doing a couple more things in the car (but not everthing that can possibly be taken out of the interior!!) just a few things, maybe the shift knob....
well okay, i painted the radio bezel and i messed it up right at the last minuite. the god damn nozzle on the paint can dripped, and i didn' notice it until it dried. so i re-did it and it came out pretty clean. i took some pics last night but w/ the flash the pics looked like shit. so when i get home from work tommarrow ill take some pics in the daylight and post them up.
after my wife saw me paint the radio bezel, she was like "do you think you can paint my rims to color match the magnum???"
