    2016 vw r32 & optimum gloss coat

    Light scratches here and there, nothing too bad, the dealer was instructed not to touch the paint. That is the way one should purchase a car, unless you like swirl marks,

    The car was washed, received a deep and a light polishing step, followed by a thick layer of Gloss Coat. Tires have PERL on them.

    These are the results, unfortunately it was dark outside by the time I finished it. Owner was happy.

    looks like you can jump right into it, that's some wet looking paint.
