I'll look forward to seeing your pictures, thanks
Finally got the buffing done, the front of the car has had 2 out of 3 steps applied (after the sanding) and the back has yet to be sanded. Using the very fine sandpaper helped a lot especially since the paint was old and harder than if it had been recently applied. I'm still planning on doing the back but the urge to get driving was bigger.[frame]Image[/frame][frame]Image[/frame]
