[Shotimes] Picked up my SHO yesterday

[Leigh Smith]

My polishing kit came with new UV coating, it made a world of difference and
has held up for two years now, on 2 different cars. Half of the old lens had
no UV coating, it had worn-off with time and washing. More of the coating
was gone on the car that had been "detailed"
