Thanks man. Always good to get approval from one of the best DIY'ers on here. lol


I took some Menzerna Intensive Polish to it by hand and followed it up with some Poorboys sealant last night. It looks even better now. I'll try to snap some daytime pics along with some full shots of the car later. I was amazed at how well it matches my wheels. Even though its not too difficult to match black paint. lol

how did u guys make it look so smooth i did the same exact thing but mine feels a bit rough to the touch. Did u have to sand it or use some kind of polish to get it to look like that after letting the clearcoat dry overnight?
