I would be interested to see if it`s really fixed. The lighting is not as good in the after shots, and those Mother`s products may have some fillers in them. Let us know how it goes, but looks good now.

christitan21- What did the marks end up being, as far as you can tell?



I too wonder if it`s truly "corrected" or whether this will end up being a temporary fix, but at least you`re a lot happier with it now. IF you decide you need to redo it, I`d sure work on very small areas while constantly checking your progress.

Ah, if that`s the case then maybe things are well sorted out now.

Ya know, I don`t want to beat christitan21 over the head with that whole subject; I`m trying to be sensible and I think of Mike Phillips`s simple take on detailing: "Does the vehicle look better?".



For somebody working without a detailing shop full of stuff, I could argue that even just redoing the "temporary fix" approach now and then as needed is a perfectly fine way to go.



We get so, uhm.....Autopian about this stuff, if you know what I mean ;)

I definitely agree with the "does it look better" approach. If I can`t see or tell the difference, then why would I care! :D



I try not to be too anal retentive, otherwise "normal" people get really annoyed at me!
