    I made a post a month or so ago discussing how soft the clear was on my customers AMG Black Series.

    Well, we have finally got around to working on the beast. Got about 10 man hours of polishing into it and have only finished the hood and 1/2 of one fender. Going to take a while, as it is our first MAJOR correction and as stated in the attached thread, a brand new microfiber will scratch this clear so we have to be extremely careful during the correction.

    More to come.

    Typically it's PPGs ceramiclear, but this car doesn't. Any time you have a carbon fiber substrate the vehicle is sent to a different facility to be painted.

    Nice job.... so is this car going to be placed in a cubicle that has no dust, contamination, and no human contact for the next few decades?

    I hope it does because that is ALOT of time to polish a hood and half a fender.

    It typically sits in my customers mancave will some other toys, when I do the writeup I'll include some pics of the warehouse.

    Hoping that with the application of opti-coat it will be easier to maintain.
