Andrew...........I haven't seen it out of the paint booth yet.  Today I should see it.  When I left yesterday, it was still baking.  I did however see one nickle size spot on the quarter panel that had "trash" in the paint. =(

I'm sure that will be buffed out or wet sanded before the car comes home.

Poly Platium (sp?)  Orginal paint code with a touch of metalic flake.  I'm not a fan of silver so I asked to have some added!!

Thanks again all!!  =)

Here are some pictures of the car out of the paint booth and also a video of  it outside in cloudy weather.  Wish it was sunny so I could see how the paint pops!

Remember this spot?








Video outside:
Opps, let me know if this comes up or not.  May need to download it a different way.
