Yeah, I was going to say I wish I could do it in six hours. I probably go a little too long making sure I have the polish broken down, plus I wasn't able to do it all in one shot so I wasted time setting up and stuff. But I still bet I had ten hours into it the last time and I didn't even do the plastic on the sides. But I know that the UDM is more powerful that my PC. I really need to get a rotary on order.

I was also going to say looking good but too bad we get such good orange peel from the factory.

So did you just do one coat of the #21? Let us know how you like it'* washability. One reason I haven't really delved into sealants yet is I've read over on Autopia that a lot of people feel they don't come clean as well as a wax. With all the pollen we have in the spring I like to have something that cleans as easy as possible.

Looking very good Ryan. Did you also invest in the Micro Polish? It is worth the investment.

I will make it up by you this summer. My son was sick when we were in MI two weeks ago. I needed to spend time with him and could not get away.

Thanks for the compliments guys, looks like I do still have some learning to do though, which is fine, I really didn't even expect my first time to turn out that nice

Tom, I did invest in the Micro Polish and used it after the SIP. Great stuff for sure

Smart move on the Chrome lug nuts. I did that and it has worked out really well.
