Paint Blog 8: Shiny.

Out of the booth.

I had stuff to do and couldn’t spend time at the shop the next day. That meant no stripes on the bumpers until the next day. But that wasn’t a hardship – there were still a lot of small parts to paint.

Still, I stopped by the shop to grab a few photos. Couldn’t let a day go by without taking some pix!

Soul. It drips from this car.

When I saw Sharka parked on his lift, I just about fell over. There’s a bit of dust on top, but… damn. Such shine. I’ve never seen a Miata with this sort of paint. It’s jaw dropping.

The lower doors are stunning without that rock guard. I’ve never seen a Miata without it. You don’t really notice it when it’s there, but when the wavy stuff is gone, you see all these REFLECTIONS. It’s amazing.

Love.

Yes.

Yes.

Very Yes.

I thought my own rattle can work was good. This smacks it around. This is some shiny shiny stuff. And, again, there’s no buffing or cut on these parts. This is straight out of paint.

Straight out of paint.

Floating happy hearts.
