    It's a great color interior! And good color combo!

    Setec, yep. BC/CC.

    I guess I've been out of the loop, and I know paint keeps getting thinner, but 3.8 mils seems too thin already for you to be able to take out those swirls and still leave some clear.

    Did you take the pictures of the swirls as it came or after wash & prep?

    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.
