Market is just too small, unless you're willing to travel. Most people here prefer to just drive their Jap imports into the ground with minimal maintenance and care. Having said that, I'm amazed at how many times I'll be reading an article about some rare vehicle (e.g. 'only 3 running examples left in the world') and one will be in NZ :lol: .
Back on topic - did you use a paint depth gauge before/after the process to see how much clear coat you had available?
Byron said some detailers don’t use a paint gauge....!! Utter utter madness imho..! We did yes, first thing we checked after the decontamination and wash. I’d never touch a car without checking first, you simply don’t know if it’s been detailed before to what level otherwise.
