polishing clear paint.....how to..., i can' have this in the flare thread Options

[pete-stevers]

Ok i admit it i don't have the eye for applying clear(paint)...or else i just don't have the lighting, i would prefer to blame it on the lighting, because really why would i blame myself for all these fricken runs.
.....that is the intro to me blowing way way to much clear on my newly flared car,
mind you it looks great, but there are more than a few runs..er a lot but it is clear and i figure i have a polisher and mucho elbo grease.
so i would like to hear your ideas on how to polish clear, (and runs and drips in clear if you don't mind....)
and how long should i wait for it to cure in this cold weather....zero-ish
step by step

The best thing i found that works is if you go to your auto paint shop and get a run razor holder. it holds the blade level and cuts exactly what you want off and will not dig into the base coat. it cost under $10 then the second best thing to get is a buffer from Harbour freight they sell for about $50 a digital buffer that you can get the exact speed/RPM you want get foam pads and then buff it up after sanding you wont be able to tell it ran. I have done it many times on jobs.

if you want i can take a picture of the holder
