If you look at the picture below, focus on the areas's where you see the white of my shirt in contrast to the paint. The "waviness" is what's referred to as "orange peel".

A lot of the orange peel in 010 Camaro and Stang is the sheet metal not the paint.

It's the robots. I blame them, some of the galvanized body metal can get dimples and the paint shows it.

Always remember when looking at something with paint that your looking at a base material and a paint. Not just a paint. The eye's can lie.

Money= easy come easy go, the time it would take for me to wax, I could have had someone wax it six times think its a good trade off, may have too look for a cheaper detailer though
