The car had an average reading of 110 microns all around the body. The hood however had some spots where it dipped below 100. Extra caution was taken when I was working with this surface.

Petrucci for the win.



Wow white is a great color on that car, particularly after a little Petrucci love :clap:



Great work and documentation, very nice!
 
I love white cars after there done. The reflection of white cars is amazing and that last truck shot ranks right up there with the best I have seen!
 
Curious how you attacked the plastic air intake "grid" below the hood. I haven't found a great of way of cleaning that yet.

Are you talking about the black honey comb grill on the bumper or the kidney grills?



I use my SV brush for those hard to read areas.
