From a distance, not much to notice.
Hmm, seems to be the same red as the 19 year old street sign..
Pre-polishing.
Different angle.
Decklid, pre-polishing.
After polishing.
After.
After. Real Red, not Opaque like the street sign.
Deep reflection.
Different angle.
Clear headlights.
Clear, slight fog look is from refractive angle of the sun..
Deep luster. Meguire's NXT.
Cloud reflection.
Red is trouble. Ask any man.
This one has an issue with oxidation from being in the hot sun of Socal a bit too many years.
Still, the red is vibrant, highly reflective and turns far too many officer's heads on the freeway!
A red like this requires quarterly polish/waxing. No sealant or once yearly wax will suffice.
