Hello everyone,
My Puma had a bit of rust on the left arch. So I've done a bit of DIY.
I've used filler instead of a new piece of metal, the reason for this is firstly I can't weld or know someone near to me that can and secondly is cash .
So I've sanded back the rust (I know, the rust is coming from the inside) to bare metal and from there on I've used a bit of filler to make it smooth and even. It's not as perfect as a professional but I can live with it.
After this I've done the whole spray thing (primer, base coat, clear coat). Let it dry for 24 hours. It was done with rattle cans
The problem I have is that my paint doesn't shine very well. It's dull. I've already tried wetsanding it with 2K, I've tried using a clay bar and I've done a bit of polishing with Adam's Fine Machine Polish but it doesn't shine..
Here are some pictures:
This was in the morning (the day after) :
This was after I've wetsanded it with 2000 and polished it with a DAP:
I don't know what to do, Do I have to wait is it because the paint has to cure? Am I doing something wrong? Have I missed a step?
Let me know! - I need your help :|
