    Ah right on, sounds like some skill and experience talking too. Probably not best for a novice to try it. I resolved it with the clear anyhow which will work out fine.

    Just got back from coding, got it done no problem and lowered the rear a little more too. Forgot to screw with servotronic, next time.

    Cool pics are coming soon. One of my pals is a photogeek, got him cornered into a shoot as soon as my bbk goes on!
    Being fair, if you have the time, the different grit sandpaper and patience to do a thorough job, wetsanding is an almost sure way to make them look their best. If you can achieve a "10" with sandpaper, you can achieve a "9.9 with a polisher and compound.

    I prefer to use polishers when I'm not faced with a flat surface, anything with and curve or contour.

    RVAE34's suggestion wasn't bogus at all, I just thought I'd offer another solution. I should have said this in my first post.
