Great work as always are you actually able to polish that paint?

 

[Sizzle Chest]

Thank you! No, not at all. Any of the frozen/matte paints are not correctable--it'll make them shiny!!!

What an amazing color! Great work! Did you notice change in the color post coating? It looks really deep in the sun pics!

Thanks! It 'richened' it up a little. Not a big change IMO.

Looks like a “bizarre “ color to work with. Nice work.

LOL Tasmania!!!

Marky: It's a really cool color...just have to get over the fact that it's a frozen/matte paint! Strange!

Did I miss what coating was used? I'm curious what you use on a matte paint.

The owner is pretty brave with the white interior. Not sure I could do that. I once got a loaner car from the dealer with white interior and didn't relax until I'd given them back the keys. I'm not a messy person, but was very afraid of something leaving a mark or spot.

Once thing I've noticed with some of BMW and Mercedes "frozen" paints is when it's an actual color and not black/gray/silver it has a very unique presence to it. It dosen't come across looking like primer or a bad rattle-can spray job like the monochrome colors often do. Hard to describe, but they are rather eye-catching.

Amazing car. The kind I'd love to take on a week long cross-country drive.

22PLE Mistico Elemento Forte is the coating.

Nice work as always!

Those wheels look like a detailer's worst nightmare though!

They were not the easiest...Too complex!!!

Great Job.

Matte finishes are not my cup of tea. I really don't get the attraction. Sure, it may look cool/different at first blush but... no thanks.
