While not my usual long/detailed write up...these cars still made for some great pictures and turn arounds.

With the new 6th Generation Camaro not too far around the corner, I wanted to share a few beautiful 5th Generation SS and ZL1 Camaro's we've had the privilege of working on in the past year or so.

All of these received some form of paint polishing/paint correction to remove the swirl marks and 3 of the 4 were protected by a permanent paint coating (Opti-Coat Pro or CQuartz Finest). I hope you enjoy the eye candy :)



1. The Blue Monster

All those different coatings seem to be good products. So my question is this: what is the criteria that drives you to choose one coating over another during a job?
