Hey everyone. So this past weekend I did some serious touching up on my car. Lots of wetsanding, lots of polishing. Everything turned out really well, but I'm wondering what your thoughts are on adding more clear on heavily touched up areas? During the wetsand process the front of my hood, about the first 6 inches or so, was totally sanded. There were 12-15 chips, so the sand spots ran right into eachother. Obviously my clear coat in this area is thin or non-existant. I am going to have a clear bra put on the car, but wonder if I should re-clear coat first.

So, comments, thoughts, ideas, recommendations? Thanks!
