Hi everyone, I got my 1st PB order the other day and thought I owuld try it out on our old bimmer. I taped off half the hood for a side by side comparision. The hood is covered in pits and has alot of scratches and swirls (its an '83). I just about killed it w/ SSR2.5 and still lots of scratches (2x) but proceeded to SSR1 twice, PB pro polish by PC and then natties by hand. I guess the hood is just to far gone for a PC to cure! It did get really shiney though and some swirls were minimized.
Questions, the natties seemed to leave behind discoloration and haziness on the blk paint. Why would it do that? I can see my little application swirlies :mad:
Also, how can I post some pics , the upload feature says each file is too large. Anyone else w/ this prob. I'd love to share some pics! thanks, ANdrew
 
Others have had luck with hosting their images on Photobucket and I just reduce mine to some where in the 900X600 range and that makes them small enough to post on here.
 
Trying to use pics but arghhhhhh
Here we go, I can't really see the discoloration after waxing in the pics that well but it was easily visible in person (plus I cut a lot out of the pictures' size). It looked a bit like smearing. Anyway, the swirls were reduced quite a bit but I don't think I can do much for the little pits that cover the whole hood. (w/out a rotary, right?)I didn't feel that successful after doing it but the pictures seem to look good! What do you all think?
