It took us a good 7 hours, both of us working on it. We enjoyed the process.
 
Great detail, looks really nice in the sun :2thumbs: . I'm really starting to like that color, the more I see it the more I like it. Mazda has a similar shade of blue that I like.

The color was amazing. I never knew how much I liked it until we started working on it. It has noticeable flake... but the color is deep enough that it is very reflective... unlike many flaky silvers that just glow so much in the sun that you cant possibly see reflections.

Why is that? Does it leave alot of micromarring for you? It finished down great for us, but it's the first car we've done w/ #83.



EDIT: I don't know what I was thinking... we used #83 on a black TL the day before! Lol... that one was also DACP straight to RMG
