The finish that comes from Nordic is "adequate" but to get the finish to the mirror state takes a “lot” of effort. I don't mean just shiny but any orange peel at all is removed and the reflectivity is extremely high on the scale.

That being said, my buddy's Heat was getting a fade on the deck after some pre-ownership weathering. We have a mutual friend that does body work on the side so we called RV and got the recipe for the block sanding adventure and the results are stellar.

A ton of work, but extremely rewarding. It also makes wipe downs and interval waxing a breeze.

Although I didn’t physically perform this myself (Thanks RV!!), I would highly recommend this procedure if you want a finish like this...(note the reflectivity)
