    OPT finish Polish new formula on soft paint

    I used a Crimson Hydrotech and that is as soft as they come for those pads and I only use those pads. I did not get any directions, I primed the pad then used 2 small pea drops like all other products I have used when buffing or polishing them out. I never dismissed it for others..but I have...

    OPT finish Polish new formula on soft paint

    Home-Made Swirl Light (Sun Gun)...under $30

    not bad job for a DIY..I just use this Shop Stanley Halogen 1 Million Series Rechargeable Spotlight at Lowes.com I hate using it though because it shines so bright I see stuff that you cant even see on the brightest of days under the sun..so its more of a headache then anything.
