Oh man that is beautiful.
I didn't think about that paint thickness thing :/
Wonder what they do regarding those spots, extra coatings?

Thanks! I don't think they do anything extra in the thin spots, just being thorough with their checks even though only minor polishing was required I believe..

For areas with thin paint you just have to becareful when you polish to not break through the clear coat and into the base paint.
