Looks awesome and really flat, I can't see no "wave", not even a start, on your pics.

I'll be flaggued as noob but whatever, what do you mean by 1 pac and 2 pac ? As english is not my native language I sometime miss some acronymes/vocabulary.

1 pac is a straight forward clear coat.
2 pac is a clear that you add a hardener to.. is tougher than 1 pac and requires a special thinner etc.

Clear takes approx 1 - 2hrs before you can pick it up and move it... 2 days before you can lay anything on it. 7 days... rock hard
