Cool Finish on a Kirkham

It looks like it's on display in a showroom. If so, then the finish should hold up well.

I love the look! Seems it should hold up as well as a paint job....and all it implies like chips here and there over time. If so it will keep the luster.

Hehe, it is in a showroom. But it is not just a display piece. Any car guy would be envious of the opportunity to drive where this car will get driven. And yes, it will get driven.

I can't wait to see how it holds up to the chips etc... If it works, I think it will be a great way to take care of a car with a brushed finish. I have heard that it is difficult to keep clear over bare aluminum looking good but products and processes keep getting better. If it doesn't work well in the long run then at least we will know. If it does work, it will be a very cool option for the aluminum car crowd.

I will update as time goes on.
