Re: 2009 Corvette - Rupes 15 Mark II + Rupes Mini + Rupes UHS + Blackfire Wet Diamond
Great detailed review buddy, thanks for sharing. You guys did a wonderful job. Those after shots are extremely eye catching. I just tried out my Mark II today. Very happy with the updates Rupes made. Ultra smooth and considerably less stalling on curved and vertical panels

Amazing job Mike! That silver paint looks so slick and glossy!
How long did it take you?
Great write up too man! Keep up the good work.

Re: 2009 Corvette - Rupes 15 Mark II + Rupes Mini + Rupes UHS + Blackfire Wet Diamond
Looks like a very nice car. Previous owner must have taken good care off it.
Your work looks perfect. The hood reflection shot gives the illusion that the hood and fenders are chromed. Looks like the reflection off those chromed Bugattis. That must be some reflective paint.
I like those wheels clean and simple design.
I've used Blackfire Wet Diamond Sealant on one entire car and it sits outside 24/7. I see the car a lot, isn't mine. The car stays way cleaner than if it wasn't sealed. Just like you and everyone says, BFWD it is so easy to use.

Even more impressive than that stunning paint is that you Hyperlinked all of the products you used in the thread. Talk about make it easy for a guy to buy what you used.

Thanks. I would to say around 10 hours with a few breaks in between. The paint alone with the UHS took about 5 hours. The glass prep took some time as there was some water spots and a film on the front and rear glass that I took care of.

Thanks. I was surprised at how well it was maintained by the previous owner.
The paint has a distinct look at various angles and light. In the garage under the lights it looked almost white.

Thanks. That was the intention. I did not link the DP line since it is going to be part of the new McKee's 37 line.

•Nice job on bringing out the true beauty
of that 2009's Blade Silver Metallic paint.
And...
•{I'll say the following without even
knowing what camera was used }:
-It appears that the interior came out very well, too.

What kind of film was on the glass? I'm assuming it was on the outside of the glass? What steps did you use to remove the film and water spots?
