Friends i need your valuable advise here
I have a “black magic” car and a brand new PC, I have polished with ASR. AFP and SSR2.5 and the hood looks great, the shine all over one the doors is quit glossy and wet, but I don’t get a clear reflection there, like when you want to take a picture and your objective is not on focus. Sorry no pics, I´ll post them as far as I get my digital camera. The reflection on the hood is great, but what im doing wrong with the door?
:confused: :confused: :confused:

That door in the picture needs wet sanding 1500-2000 grit, then compounding to bring it up to the pre wax condition gloss, some of those factory paint jobs are a joke..........

It is going to be a tough process to get it out. Definitely not one for the weekend warrior. It is called orange peel BTW.
