And then there is the wet sanding, there were some minor fish eyes and other imperfections that needed to get worked out...
Started on the trunk side of things, 2k followed by 3k wet sanding, then Griots Fast Correcting Cream, then Menzerna 2500 medium cut, and finally 3500 polish. I was very nervous as I've never wet sanded or cut/polished a car before, there was awhile during cutting that I thought i was never going to get the sanding marks out. But after getting more aggressive pads, my fear faded away. The rear looks amazing, hardest part is all of the fuzz my microfiber towels leave behind, but this color is as hard to photograph as anything for someone of my skill level.
putting the brand new roundel on the back felt really good today. Now i need to tackle the front...
