Hey everyone, just thought id share some pics of my recent paint correction and opticoat pro. Gotta say, quite impressed witht he results. Got rid of all the swirls and a few touchups done, then the opticoat. Car is so easy to wash and dry now too. Heres a youtube link to the video he made for his page

Looks great! If you don't mind me asking, how much did the coating cost? I want to have my car pc-ed and coated but I can't find anyone to do the coating

Looks real sharp, they did a great job. Like the cloud reflections.
You going to put on PPF or Xpel film in the chip/sandblast prone areas? (e.g. gill area, front-end, mirror, leading spoiler edge, rocker)
I made my own stencils and cut from bulk which made that relatively inexpensive.
Some type films do a self correct after injury.

If you don't tell folks they don't know it is even on the car.
At Cars and Coffee noticed a stunning difference in paint condition between Camaros that have the film and ones that don't.

Looks great. A RHD Camaro? Now, that's pretty cool!

Oh, make sure to fix the passenger-side..err....I mean driver-side wiper. lol! It looks like the blade is detached from the wiper arm.

Having walked the planet now for 61 years, I have tried a LOT of products. Some worked well and some ruined things. One reduced auto trans fluid to rusty mud - a $1,700.00 product mistake. Rebuild trans required. I'll even name names - Prolong! Run, don't walk...

What makes this any different than a glorified wax? And if I wax EVERY time I wash, does it make sense to use something that says I don't have to wax? I like to wax. I'm asking because I don't know.

Forgot to mention, im in australia thats why it right hand drive. The coating cost me $1500 , this post isnt an ad I just used his pics off his facebook page lol. Hes a better photographer than me. As for the film, I didnt even know you could get one might look into that, the front bumper is not quite a pretty as the pics look but 100x better than it was. They say I never have to polish again which is almost worth it just on that alone, hate polishing.
