Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Looks good from here. [thumbsup]

Nothing special, alfa Milano red Basecoat, with gold and red cyrillics in the first coat of clear and then 2 coats of clear on top, one of my employees loves to polish
so wet sanded with 1200 and now he is polishing.

Gives the paint a metallic finish when in the sun, but almost invisible in the shade

Like this, gold and red in the clearcoat

No issues with the 1200 scratches?

I usually finish with 1500-2000.

I have to bail early...electrician will be here in about a half hour.

Later...

I use a industrial electric polisher and then do the polishing in 2 stages, cutting compound first and then polishing. works fine for large surfaces like cars, for bikes I do the same as you and then use a smaller air operated polisher and hands.

Cheeers !!!!!
