Today, the weather was a bit nicer with temps in the 60’s and sunny skies. So it was the perfect winter day to do the final buffing on the paint. Even though the paint looks great after clear-coating, we wet sand everything again to eliminate any slight orange peel or dust specks in the clear and then do the final buffing.  We start off with a rough cut compound and keep using finer polishes until we get the perfect finish.  Here are a few pictures of the process and a picture of it after assembly. I’ll get some good final shots tomorrow outside in the sun.
