You may be correct, that the paint was not fully nourished with one heavy application of #7 This was a modified version of Mike Phillips, more extensive process with #7 Total time for the project was 4 1/2 hours 30 minutes for application of #7 and 4 hours of compounding, the following day .

Nice work. Thank you for the great photography. I wish everyone would include 50/50's and close-up as you did.

Vacuum Hose Adapter from Home Depot Leaf Blower from Sears Outlet ($10) Metro Vac hose extension Leaked like crazy at the junction of the blower and the adapter. Fixed with electrical tape. It works acceptably, but not as good as the Metro Sidekick or air compressor. - It does not blow...

Hold your phone differently

Does heat accelerate the deterioration of CC? I think there is no direct correlation between the two. I believe the higher heat and UV in areas like South Florida, will degrade the LSP more rapidly and therefore the CC spends more time exposed directly to UV. I have not seen a correlation...

Helmet & HANS Device for me

They have given away a ton of Iron-X Paste recently Has anyone diluted paste to make it sprayable? What dilution ratio? .
