Ok, so the car is about a year old, and it was in need of much TLC. The paint looked lifeless to me, when I went to look at it to see how much work it would need which was a few weeks ago. I explained to the owner what I needed to do to get it close to mint. After a couple of weeks, the owner contacted me and said he was ready. Car was dropped off the afternoon before, and scheduled to be picked up the following evening. Unfortunately, I couldn't finish on time so the owner agreed on me having the car an extra day. Total was around 15 hours.

Opti Coat Pro: paint, wheels, exhaust, rear licence paint.

Opti Glass Pro was used on windows

Thank you all very much!

Zack - The product is not sold by AG so I can't mention it. Sorry.

You can PM me. :)
 
my goodness. my eyes is like dripping wet by looking at that paint work. i can't wait to try and opti coat my black paint. thanks for taking all those final pics. i feel like we need more final pics like that to be like O.O bam! damn... you know lol
 
That is a terribly new car to have already been swirled so badly. Just wonder what people are thinking sometimes. :rolleyes:

Love the color though, and that really looks nice once it's done right. :dblthumb2:

One thing for sure.... those body lines are surely as polarizing as you'll get, that's a "love it or hate it" thing if there ever was one. ;)

Should be able to charge extra for all the angles, twists, turns, and high spots! :buffing:
 
Wow! Beautiful work! I tried to jump into that paint but hit my head on the monitor...:drool:
 
I just flooded my key board.....now need wet vaccum
 
I really like that color and you did great bringing it back to way it should look.
 
Thank you all very much, glad you like the finish.

I meant to say exhaust tip. Sorry.

To be fair, the car is a year old, and not unusual to have this amount of damage. The owner has been instructed to take care of the finish the right way from now on. His wife's car is next, similar color, but a Hyundai. Very new but thanks to the dealership, it has lots of swirls already.

Thanks again!
