Double the Opti, double the WOW! 2013 Mustang *PIC HEAVY*
Hey everyone!
Here is a write up on a 2013 Mustang in Deep Impact Blue I did a few weeks ago.
I was contacted by this client & we exchanged various emails. He had done his homework & knew what he wanted.
We agreed on a one step & 2 coats of Opti Coat Pro.
A few before pics of how i received her:

Old wax residue riddled most of the plastics around the car

As usual i started with the Rims, Tires, & Wheel Wells.
Few before's:

I then stripped, washed, IronX'ed, & clayed the car. Sorry no pics.
Once i was done prepping the car, & it was it nice & dry it was time to Get taping!

The entire car was then given 2 coats of Opti Coat Pro. Glass was sealed with Optimum opti Seal. Interior was vacuumed, vinyl was dressed, leather was conditioned.
Now onto the afters!!

Using manual mode on a camera is like hand-polishing a car. It can be done, but why? Okay, it's not an exact analogy; manual mode is sometimes the best choice. But don't kid yourself into thinking it is "more professional" than using the program, aperture, or shutter speed priority modes.
That aside, nice work on the car.
