Congrats!

Diver, I decontaminated the paint and applied opticoat 2 to seal the paint

PJGP13 · 08-19-2014, 12:53 PM

Nice! Congrats!
I am still waiting for mine to go into production!

Few questions. Is it a 2015, xi maybe? Where you able to get he M brakes as an option, or are those part of the Track Handling Package?
First time reading about Opti Coat, by decontamination you mean clean out wax from the dealer before applying? Any specific product?
Thanks! Enjoy your 228

JPGP13, she's a 2015 so the brakes are part of the track package, unlike the 2014,s which were separate
I had the dealer NOT touch the paint so I just clayed it and used Mg 205 where I saw defects using my light, followed by Eraser as my prep.
First time for me using opticoat
