Talking Hardbody on Nebula Gray Pearl

The weather finally warmed up a little and the hubby helped me apply hardbody yesterday. This is after 2 coats. The pic doesn't do the finish justice. It's so glossy! Here's a quick pic, I'll take some more in the sunlight and post later on.

Big thanks to @Sydtoosic for the recommendation and instructions for applying Hardbody!

Looks good, I have it sitting and I'm to lazy to do it so it's still sitting there. +1 on some more shots, don't leave us hanging.

I took some outside shots yesterday and don't think they do the HB justice. Its definitely more glossy/shiny in person, like liquid silk. As promised, here's an outside shot first, I'll find better lighting and post more.

That's a great idea! Hubby used an applicator pad and 1/3 of the bottle's gone after 2 coats. I think he OD'd on hardbody. I can't complain though, he did the whole thing for me.

i was lead to believe he helped you... you didn't tell us he did the whole thing, so basically you just supervised. nice.. the pic in the garage looks better, the outside pic is not bad but your camera angle is off, maybe you should have tried from the other side of the car. i want to see the true shine of the HB on that NG GS...

I did help with buffing, but yeah, that's pretty much it. . I need to take the pics in better lighting, I did photo the other side, but it was all blurry from the sun rays. Will try again.
