The tail lights were even swirly so I gave those a polish to.

After(this was after one hit, to correct it better it required a second hit)




I gave the car a wipe down with ipa alcohol cut 50/50 with water and then jeweled the paint with a grey 3M backing plate, a white Lake Country pad, and Menzerna PO85rd.

Here is a shot of me jeweling the paint.


And the results of my work.






After a couple hours of jeweling the paint and completing the last step I finally unmasked the car.




Dusted out the crevices.


And then gave the paint a 2nd ipa wipe down to clean off the polishing oils.




Here she is cleaned up. No wax yet but still a nice gloss because of the jeweling.


As well before doing my last steps I double checked the paint with my 3M Sun Gun which omits the same spectrum light as the sun.


No swirls.
