Message	Unfortunately I didn't get to finish tonight.. This stuff takes MUCH longer than I expected.. I just called it a night for now.. Will finish up the rest tomorrow. No turning back now! I am having a trouble spot with an area on the hood.. but the hatch looks great! I didnt end up using wool pad since I was advised not to by other members. I ended up using foam buffing pad with Meguires "Ultimate Compound".. then tried following up with Meguires "SwirlX".. Wet sanded a few areas that needed it with 2000grit and some dish soap/water. You can see the tape line is.. so I could see the difference.. Strange thing is.. The ultimate compound side (right side) is actually a little more hazy than the other side. I ended up trying the SwirlX (which I would've thought to be less aggressive than the ultimate compound... but it seemed to make it even more hazy compared to the "stock" side (left). Maybe I'm not working it in enough.. even though on the trunk lid.. I used the same pressure, same motions, and used the Ultimate then the SwirlX.. Seems on the hood its the other way around? I am guessing maybe someone could have tried buffing the hood in the past and went too deep? I don't know.. I'm going to try to finish it all up tomorrow if possible. Luckily i've burnt through no paint yet :) Thanks for the help guys!! size=2>_________________________________________ ________________________________size=2> ~~~ Sig starts below ~~~ size=2>=============================== ================================== NO, This picture is not photoshopped. src="http://www.maximusdvd.com/mytwinturbo/images/b ikeburnzig.jpg"> MySpace for those who have em' AIM:Shawn300zxTT "-Any closeups on the nuts? - zboost(tx) 19:17:53 08/08/05 -Not really something you want to ask another man about...
