Afters

 

Thank you very much Phil, on pictures you can't even tell the film is there, and even in person at certain angles it blends in very nicely. I will have to look at the products in more detail to see what I can use on my weekly washes.

 

sure thing no problem.

 

Beautiful colour.

 

Thank you

 

Great work on another sweet R, Phil! :thumb:

 

That is one beautiful ride. Love that color.

 

I love the color too. Sweet job on the work as always!

That color just fits that car to a tee. Great job!
