Lotus Elise Paint correction with Opti-Coating

Hi MB

My name is Tuan and wish to share some of my work here. I hope it is cool with everyone here.

So I have Lotus Elise in for paint correction. Owner also opted for Opti-coat for a more durable protection over polymer sealant . The paint was pretty hammered, so I did my best to rescue the paint. Anyways..Here is what I'm against..sorry no wash pictures.

Thanks for viewing!
