2006 Black Impala, Sonax Perfect finish

[Alex Boyce]

This was a 2006 Chevy Impala LTZ that was brought to me for some care. This is the first car I've been able to use Sonax perfect finish, and so far it is AMAZING! Great work time, very little product goes a long way and the finish it leaves is awesome.

Great work. I have heard nothing but good things about Sonax Perfect Finish. Will this be carried in the Autopia store?

Very nice correction work!

Very nice.

You do not see many black Impalas as of late except when they have the Impala SS. They seemed to have gone to white a lot (maybe for the rental market). My inlaws' Impala is white.

Wow, Perfect Finish looks like good stuff! Great work Alex!


PS...I'm a sucker for pics of huge tape balls, that's an awesome one you had there.

PPS...Please don't read anything into "huge tape balls". I really just mean tape.
