Over the past 10 day's after work I've been spending a few hours every evening fully correcting and getting my Dad's car ready to apply Gyeon Mohs Evo while he was away on vacation as a Father's Day present. I finally finished up last night while it was dark and only today after work I was able to pull it out in the sunlight to look at the final result.
Lo and behold I noted down at least 20 high spots. At least one or more on every single panel/section. The hood itself is for sure going to need to be completely repolished. This is my 5th time apply a coating lite like Cancoat or SiRamik Lustrous Plus Graphene or a full fat coating like 22PLE HPC and I did not have any high spots that I could see with those. I was super careful with my wipe off but I'm not sure if it the temperature/humidity in my garage (75 degrees and around the same humidity) or I just didn't wipe Mohs Evo fast enough. Mohs was pretty much instantly sweating but I still did a second up and down pass like the video guides showed. Should I have not bothered with the second pass? I was doing roughly 2"x2" in sections on each panel so it's not as if I was trying to do too large of a section at a time. I made sure to secondary wipe well outside of the section I just coated. It's also possible that even though I did wipe enough the build up residue on my secondary towel is the culprit. In all likelihood I didn't change sides often enough and the build up was getting pushed around on the edges.
After having something nearing 40 hours into the whole project I'm just completely disgusted and just need to step away for a week or so before I can stand to work on or even look at the car again. Am I going to have to fully repolish the entire car or can I just spot repolish the high spots and a few inches around them and then reapply Mohs Evo to those sections? I'm going to assume something like Sonax Pefect Finish or NV Finesse with a Rupes white pad will be enough or will I have to step up to a yellow pad? Can I put this off for a week or two when I can get back into the right state of mind to fix this and/or it isn't raining? There's less than 10ml of Mohs Evo left so I'll have to order another 30ml bottle to ensure I have enough to recoat the areas or panels.
