yellow cupra k1, polish testing

<< < (42/75) > >>

cuprajake:
I took it a step further, I actually wet sanded the clear down removing the Orange peel effect in the paint.

The discs will remove a lot of imperfections, but not the actual finish of the paint.

I've just finished now, and the cars come out really well.

Numpty here forgot his dslr so only have a couple of pics off my phone. So hard to get any quality images really.

So in total I had.

5hrs colour sanding and trizact
10hrs machine polishing.

Quite a long process but well worth the effort.

The armrest an easy fitment? Really finishes off the centre console, may do it to the g/f's FR.
