That's cool.  I promise to you, I have never seen this.  Chris Turner says
VW dealers have it if you ask.  Amazing.
I can do a whole repaint this weekend, myself, with no worries about
matching.  Perhaps rig up a paint booth with some clear trash bags, alcohol
the car down, rub it good, spray the stuff on.  Instead of taping off
windows I think I will just scrape it off with a razor blade or something.
The magazines all say these 0professional painters place too much emphasis
on preparation.  Just a way to get extra charges, I guess.
