Hi guy,s
first let me introduce myself name is Richand I'm an old dude who's been doing his own car stuff since I was 16 y.o, I'm in so.cal., San Diego to be exact. I need some help on a problem I've created. I have a 73 vette that is my baby and it had a couple cracks in the front that I decided to fix.Did that and decided that instead if just touching up that i'd paint the front.well I did that with no problem and it looked great. and I read on the web that it should be clear coated. so I thought I'd add that. the base coat had a nice shine and I wet sanded it and kooke even better so I put the clear coat on, 3 coats 10 min. apart and the third coat as I heard was supposed to be the one that shines "not" it's back to dull so I ordered some M105 thinking that might do but haven't got it yet. Now my question us, why is the clear coat dull and will using the M105 solve the problem? I was planning on doing it by hand when i get the m105
Sorry for the long post and maybe I'm not in the right place, but I was wondering if someone could help me out with this problem.
TIA
These are great forums I bookmarked it about 12 times so I could find it any where I looked.
