Have a buddy at LOTO with a 38 TG that W&W redid the interior on several years back (2017/18) and the Alcantara is holding up nicely.

Looks good.

Do you mind asking them what kind and brand of paint they use? I have always wondered because most automotive paints want clear on in a 24 hour window.


Obviously, not something you can do on paint jobs like this.

Not sure what they are using there, but many "automotive" paints wants you to clear in 24 hours so the clear bonds better. But, if you wait over the 24 hrs, most of them just need a scuff to for a tooth for the clear to bond to as after 24 hrs the paint has cured and formed a smooth surface.
