Well, I was really proud of the paint I laid on the nosecone. It came out really shiny and smooth. I ran out of time Sunday so I just set it on the car and snapped some photos, then pushed it back into the garage. Yesterday afternoon, I take a closer look. Nose looks great, but the rest of the car is covered with dust. No biggie, I think, and I wipes it off. BUT, there is a rough layer of what feels like overspray on the hood, headlights.....well, every horizontal surface. I guess either the base or clear drifted into the garage while I was in the driveway blissfully shooting the nose. Now I have to get this **** off. Think it will it safely wipe off with some reducer or should I just buff the **** out of it again?
how old is the rest of the paint? i'm not too much of a body man, but try a clay bar. seems to me that'll be the ticket.
Ya need to keep in mind it aint like the old laquer days. This new **** sticks to everything The Clears are the worst. I cringe if I have to take my daily to a body shop cause ive had 2 come back covered with overspray cause they wernt masked off properly. The **** sticks to everything including the gl***. Dave
It's only a week old. I just shot it. I had to do the nose separately because of time constraints. It's a base/clear that I had already wetsanded and buffed.
