If you were in the DFW area I could help you out, both with the coating and/or painting.
    Thank you!
    What kind of coating do you recommend?
    Yesterday i coated it wil blacklight, jet seal and petes 53 wax.

    Re: URGENT need help! Correcting 2011 Mustang.

    This is a perfect example of "rule of thumb." Meaning go to the edge of the body-line, put your thumb down and measure out a tip of your thumb length from the body line. This is your demarcation line, where you will not polish up to. You can even mark it with 3m thin pin stripe tape.

    The new paint applied by the body shop, while heavy on the larger panels usually gets thin towards body lines and curves. This added to the fact that the after market paint is softer than OEM, it's easier to burn these areas.

    So, after you have it resprayed, keep all this in mind. It's a good learning lesson, but one that you can recover from. Or just drive the car, enjoy it, let it get all rock chipped and then get it repainted. After repaint, wait the 30 or 60 days, do light polish and clear-bra it!

    I think you already damaged the clear coat.
    Thanks
