My Z2 usage... too little, too much, or just right?

I got 3 coats of Z2/ZFX on the 04 GTP this past weekend...

I filled one of the little bottles supplied with the ZFX about 3/4 full of Z2, and added 7 drops of ZFX.

After applying 3 coats (with Z6 in between each) ... I ended up having probably 1/8th of the bottle left with polsih in it (which I had to wash out and waste)

So... to the super-experts... how am I doing as far as quantity of polish used. Keep in mind this is a 2004 Grand Prix GTP, so it's a fairly large car... I polsihed the wheels, and the light lenses as well... also no sunroof.

Right on target. I generally fill the bottle less than half-way and get 3 coats on my truck. If I'm doing 3 on an f-body, I fill it half, and I'm still left with a little extra.

I'm doing a Z06 for $ today, and I'll probably fill the bottle a little over half and give the guy his money's worth (Zaino EVERYTHING).

But 3 coats out of a half bottle is right on target. Good job.

PIX!!!

Cool, thanks.

I'll check it out, I thought there may have been a fee involved, so I never bother to check it out before...
