One step ceramic coating that removes swirls and scratches? That’s NSP Z1 in a nutshell — it corrects defects while laying down a 1+ year ceramic nanocoating.
We’ve been talking for awhile now about the advances in shine and efficiency Z1 brings to the table, and now it’s time to show how that works in the real world with a new case study.
Authorized Detailer Michael Lambert of the Shine Shop Detailing in Reisterstown, Maryland put Z1 to the test on his customer’s 2003 Ferrari 360. The car had been decently maintained, but not to the highest standard. “There were lots of wash defects,” Michael explained. “The owner had also used a California Duster pretty frequently, which added even more scratches.”
Despite all the scratches, Michael said Z1 corrected the finish with ease. “I used nothing but Z1 and some Rupes yellow pads,” he told us, “and it was near perfect.”
By the end of the job, Michael still had plenty of Z1 left over. “Beyond priming the pad, I’m really only using two pea sized squeezes at a time,” Michael said, “Compared to other one steps I’ve used, Z1’s giving me better results and better protection with a fraction of the product.” Can’t beat that!

Thanks again to Mike for all the photos!
Have photos/video of yourself using Z1 or any other NSP?
Let us know — we just may feature them as a new “Case Study”!
