    Default Glossy, shinny exterior??

    Aite tC fans =) I airbrushed my car and will have it clear coated again tomorrow (Saturday) but I want it to be as shinny as it was from factory paint. What solution or agent should I use to make it glossy or shinny?

    Will waxing do the trick?

    I don't think you're supposed to wax it after it's been painted for a week or so. At least that's what my paint guy tells me.

    Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me.. that's what they told me the first time too =)

    I got a cool spoiler on my car so I decided to clear coat it again.

    But I haven't seen my car yet, if it's not shinny; what can I do to make it shinny?

    No new pics yet.. I guess I'm slacking off

    airbrush still the same.. I did a local polls for the airbrush on my car

    and 85% of them like it the way it is. So, I guess I'm sticking with it.

    The car does look a lot shinnier but can't wax it yet until next week.

    I have been busy trying to do dvd/sound system for the car and hasn't had

    much time to take pictures. Maybe when I'm ready to settle down I will
