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 |

QUOTE(muddboy @ Feb 10 2009, 10:03 PM)  what about using a nib file? I've seen them... but have used the razor blade thing myself. Nib files work well but the average person is not gonna have one in there tool box. Razors are cheap and just about every wrench owner has a box of them lying around. |
