also used a finesse 1k filler on small pin holes tiny scratches,great job
base coat wen on fine,
clear coat on pretty good,anti scratch
medium orange peel all around to be expected
next day,
rubbed with 1500 then 2000 wet dry
compounded with 3M fastcut III(green)
then to take dullness outa compounded paint
then with softer pad machine polished with autoglm paint renovater (pink bottle)
then glazed with purple hole hand glaze
then waxed with collinite 845 wax
paint came out in showroom flat glossy shiney perfect match condition
