i tinted my side markers with a tint spray and applied the duplicolor clear coat and it just doesnt look right.

i sanded the lights with wet sand 1500 grit before each clear coat and the lights dont looks glossy or shiny at all :S they after each clear coat application the light looks grainy, and sanding that done makes it smooth but at the same time it makes it looks very dull, almost as if i painted it with a sharpie :S

what am i doing wrong?

 

Get a small buffer and use it on the lights it should shine them right up!

 

do you recomend a certain buffer? or which one did you use? lol

 

Use polishing compound.
Don't use rubing.

 

dont matter and i used 3m polishing compound

 

alrightt thanks guys! ill be sure to get that tomorrow

 

also check the days humidity. Make sure it's not above 55f when you do the clear. I did it once and my clearcoat came out a hazy dull look

 

lol if you couldnt apply clear it its over 55 F then use people in arizona cant do it? i know what you mean just making a stupid coment.

 

Polishing compound should do the trick
before

After

 

oops I meant 55% humidity. Does sedan tails came out sweeeeeet!!!!

 

Thanks!

 

Hey nymostwanted. You got lowering springs on your Balt? It looks like it does on your sig

 

Yea its on sportlines man.

 

hows the ride is rough or is it the same. I've been contemplating on getting em for about 2 months now lol. but wasnt sure

 

It's a bit more harsh, not a lot, but just a bit. but personally i think its totally worth it because it makes the car look a lot different lol

 

any reason that you didnt go with the pro kit. sorry with all the questions, is that ive been getting mixed review. how much is the drop? i dont know if theres a diff drop with the ss that i have

 

I looked at pics of the pro kit and it barely drops it lol They both might perform the same but i decided to go with the lower drop. On the 2.2's it drops it 2"front and 2.5" back. I think its the same on the 2.4's. Not sure though lol
