    Thanks

    I should have some "real" afters on Wednesday evening, after I finish wetsanding and polishing the hood.

    Well, I finished buffing out with D151 and the gloss was great, but the hood was still full of etching, deeper scratches, and some other defects. Soooo - I decided it was time to do a little wetsanding

    I did a small test spot using unigrit 1500 and 2000 and it came out great! I'll post some pics tomorrow as I wetsand the hood and then cut it with M105 to a nice shine. I think I'll try 83 followed by 80 instead of 151 on the hood and see if I can get just a little more gloss and shine out of it.

    OK, so I looked for the thread about this Mustang, and I couldn't find it Maybe it's in the archived section, but I have no idea how to get in there.


    Sorry,

    What products did you use?
    Thank you sir!
    Honestly, I can't remember the exact process. I'd have to look up the thread and hopefully I put it in there


    Get back to you on that.....
