Waiting for the clear and color to cure!
What a process! I did learn a lot from this project!!! Most of all patience!

I now need to polish the over spray out and remove some of the orange peel.
Suggestions Mike????
Thanks everyone!

Let it fully dry and harden for a week or two.

Then LIGHTLY sand and the slowly, without creating any heat - compound and polish.

I have M 105 and m 205 but I think they are over 6 years old.

I have M 105 and m 205 but I think they are over 6 years old.

I just cut and buffed whole vehicle with 105 and wool on rotary followed by 205 with green foam on rotary with great results. This was after wet sanding 1000, 2000 and 3000 by hand with a 3” relatively hard block.
Give the stuff a shake and run it.

Most well-made products by good chemists are formulated to stay in suspension for around 5 years as long as they are not exposed to either extreme heat or extreme cold.

Anytime you have a product that's been standing for a long time, shake it crazy for a minute or two and then pour some out.

If you see a uniform consistency, it's probably good to use.

If you see a runny, or watery goo that shows signs of separation, then it's probably no longer any good. It may work, but it will not perform like it did when it was new.

Ok thanks Mike !
Should I use an interface pad when polishing out? I am dealing with many curves. Don't want to burn through.
