so i finally got my car clear coated, 2 coats in the same day ; ten minutes in between.
my 1st attempt was so horrible, i didnt even take pictures of it. sanded it back down which took forever and today was my 2nd attempt.
today's work was the best ever!
clear coat x 2:



2000 grit wetsand + 3M rubbing compound + orbital buffer = PRICELESS.
the result:


u can clearly see the difference, with my silhouette showing. (yes im topless in this pic) LAWL
