This truck received a new paint job, but the finishing work left much to be desired. There were some light rotary holograms, and I have never seen so much overspray on any vehicle. The hood was especially bad - felt worse than sandpaper. Because of this, the paint was pretty dull and life-less. I think the owner and I were both pleased with the outcome.

Beautiful work Zane! No more holograms and a really wet looking finish. :drool:



Haven't seen you use Werkstatt products yet, comments?
 
I appreciate the compliments!



I'd like to get a little more familiar with the Werkstatt products before I make a review. :)

Looks great! How did you like the Pinnacle polish? Also was the paint easy to work with or hard and unwilling?



Thanks,

The Pinnacle polish was pretty nice to work with - easy on and off, mild dusting, etc.



The paint was pretty easy to work with, but it's a repaint, so I'm not sure if it's representative of Dodge's paint.
