    It does look great! I hate orange peel and every car manufacture has it. But the cool thing is there is one way to get rid of most of it. You just have to wetsand and buff the ENTIRE car. A good 2 days work to do it properly.

    It is hard to tell in this pic. I need to get some better ones. But you can tell the dif in the orange peel. The first pic is my bedside that has not been sanded and the second pic is my fender that has been sanded and buffed. Its almost a mirror image.

    The charger looks great! Have Mecha stick with Z2 from now on. It's even clearer and deeper.

    I've thought about the orange peel... then I start thinking "how do you know the clear is thicker than the orange peel? and if it is, how much?

    Its thicker. I believe that out of the factory the clear coat on a vehicle is around 2.5mils thick. Getting the ornage peal out will prob take about .5mil out of the clear. You just have to be careful around the edges and body lines because you can burn through. You dont realize the dif amount of pressure you but on edges compared to a flat surface.
