Process:



1z metallic glazex2 (PC)

AIOx1 (PC)

NXT pastex2 by hand, first coat dried for ~1hr before removing...



Wheels were done with meguairs hot shine. A little too shiny for me, and it doesn't last, but I got a sample for free, figured I should use it...
 
Damn! I like that color.



Where's the guy hiding behind it with the garden hose for this pic? That car looks wet as hell.
 
EXCELLENT work!





That color really pops when detailed. I also agree with the Jolly Rancher comment above.
 
Thanks guys!



I got a little depressed with the miata because the paint was starting to fail, and I absolutly hated detailing it....



But having a new car had breathed some fresh air into my old favorite hobby! I'm glad to be back!!!!



This thing gets detailed as often as I can find some spare sunlight.. I love it!



Oh, and yes. Custom, Color stamped concrete.. Dark gray in color. I just did a quick check for more pics of it, but nothing too great... I'll see if I can find some for ya! It's awesome!
 
The superlatives have all been said. Good Job!!



Really liked the Jolly Rancher remark. It fits to a tee!
 
Thanks guys!!!!!



The color is called Black Cherry Pearl.



I love it! Although in most lights, or when dirty it looks more purple then black cherry, When it's clean and waxed, and in direct sun, it's beautiful! I suppose i'll just have to keep it nice and shiny then, right???



I was amazed at how it came out, and every time I look at that picture, It still amazes me...



It does look like a jolly rancher! Awesome!!!



Thanks again! Getting compliments from you guys must mean I'm really doing something right!
 
i thought i would give this thread a *bump* for such an awesome color and detail for those who haven't seen it yet!
