Also made a timelapse and video of the whole thing lol but thats still in the works.

The photos are all from my shitty iPhone 3GS so don't expect awesome stuff but you can see a slight difference from before...

I Still want new retrofits.
You guys think I should apply some MeGuiars Plast-X to finish it off? I don't have Lamin-X or any type of clear coat available.
Back to work. Gotta finish the other side.

Um... I was in Richmond last night but wasn't at Bubble Queen. However, I did chill at Bubble Queen on Thursday and I parked on the 2nd floor. What were you driving?

I would just finish it off with a sealant...if you don't have it try some Collinite 845. Good cheap sealant that'll last you. Another thing is you didn't have to tape off the paint. Assuming you did this by hand, the product doesn't actually harm the paint at all.

It works, but if you have a friend with some compound or medium polishing depending on how bad yours have hazed...that works just as well.

!Nhan 10-09-2011 04:45 PM

tried polishing compound and it helped a bit but then started hazing again a week alter

Gh0stRider 10-09-2011 04:58 PM
