LSP Final Check?

What do you guys do after wiping/buffing off your LSP? Do you QD the car once again to smooth out the LSP? and how do you look for any missed spots?

I always tend to miss some parts and see the mess later on....

I sometimes wash the car 12hrs after the LSP, so that takes care of everything. Or you could buff off in the sun light....

After I buff off, I just feel the paint. If there's a spot that's not slick, then I missed something

Edit: FMinus, I thought you meant if you unwaxed a spot, my bad hahah. I just wipe the Mf over the panel till I see a clear surface

I try to always use a spray sealant or qd after lsp. Now, I don't have a problem with leftover lsp. What's your situation? Is it hard to see in the shade/garage or nightfall? Maybe a walkthrough with a halogen or Brinkmann xenon light?

I usually have some dust on the vehicle after polishing, so I spray it down with QD which does a nice job of putting some slickness on the paint and at the same time collects the dust so much easier. I just use Poorboys QD, does the job!

if you do a wipedown with a QD wont it effect the curing of the LSP?
