Lovely cute spider. Is that your car paint or is it sandpaper.

No it's the car paintwork- that's what metallic finish looks like magnified.

Ok, it just looks rough. First time I have seen metallic magnified that much. Cheers.

Thanks Scott and Bill :)
Not an expert on paintwork but my understanding of metallic paint finish is that it is a rough particulate paint with a clear laquer layer on the top. So it does have a smooth finish. Just know at this time of year when the car is normally shaded the bugs like resting on it :)

Great shots of such a small subject Brian. Seems like your car is a popular gathering place for bugs. LOL!!
