Re: 2018 Tesla Model 3
Great work and write up and pictures as always Justin!
Before and after pictures is showing the depth difference very effectively.
Do you use an airbrush to apply the IGL Eclipse with? And around how much of Eclipse does it take to do a car like this with wheels and wheel wells and suspension and all?

Typically a hvlp gun. Just upgraded to a Iwata lph80. Things awesome. 50ML +/- maybe a bit more.

Re: 2018 Tesla Model 3
If you have clients with Teslas Model 3, inform them that they need to get mud flaps installed on the front wheels. There is a defect with that model. The wheels throw rocks and other debris along the sides of the vehicles and it removes the paint. Tesla refuses to cover it under warranty. Many people with vehicles less than a year old now have rust on the lower panels and the paint has been completelly removed down to metal. A simple mud flap will prevent this from happening and will cost only a few dollars for each wheel.
I sent an email about it to all my Tesla Model 3 clients.

Another winner, Justin.
I always love seeing what the pros do.
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

I guess that's one way to deal with it but mudflaps are so ugly... Unless you drive an offroad vehicle that should not be used, it's terrible. But PPF which is the route I'd prefer, costs way more. Good thing I don't drive a Model 3

^^ I'm with Tom on this. Intrigued by it but isn't it a bit overkill? Why not just apply wheel coating as normal? Honest question as I'm not familiar with the IGL Product lineup and how it's applied vs others. 50Ml+ just seems like an awful lot of coating to be used on that car.
Thanks!
