Can you get a car too glossy...

Sounds interesting, but at near $7 per applicator and only 1 use......I dunno... I might try 1 and see how I like it.

Not a single use. Immediately after finishing, dunk it in water for a spell and then dry it out.

So you're saying soaking in plain water will remove 100% of the coating that is soaked into it?

I don't think it could look any better regardless of what camera of lens was used. You did a great job!

 

[mjlinane]

Thanks Paul.

What I can say is that I have used mine for multiple applications of OptiCoat over the last 3-4 months or so and have had no issues with residual OC on the applicator or marring of paint from its use. The neoprene side does an excellent of not absorbing the OC.

Looks like I'll be giving it a try!

Think that is a little better than half way decent. Great color to polish up.

Great job, quick question though... Got enough of those work platforms???

I have 5. Very useful for SUVs - just ring the back and you don't have to climb up, work, climb down, move and repeat (and repeat and repeat...). Useful for other things, too.

Picked them up at the last couple of Black Fridays for ~$20 ea.

If there's an example of gloss that should set the standard this would be it Mike! WOW!! :bigups

 

[mjlinane]

Thanks Bobby.

Yeah, Home Depot had the Gorilla version of them on sale last week and they were all sold out within the first 3 hours... Luckily I got there in time to see employees stashing the last 4 so they could purcahse them after work :wall Oh well, I'll just wait around til the next sale.

Car looks great! I really like that color.

I only consider myself an amateur when it comes to taking photos but all I can say is lighting is everything and the environment your in makes a big difference. Darker colors inside a garage or inside a building are harder to capture on film or digitally. The outside photos look great but again overcast skies make the pictures look darker. I wish I could be of more help but I am finally going to start learning more myself after a lifetime of wanting to become a better photographer.

Dean. :bigups
