Awesome Vid Drew !!!

I had a similar problem once my four 15" Xcons ripped the brackets for the electric motors on the side rear windows in half.. I had to get the manual latches from a wrecker and tighten up the adjustment almost enough to break the glass to stop them from flapping on the low notes

Yes it's Valspar high gloss laquer in a can and also clear in a can. And yes you will need to primer it before paint after you have speckled the wood. Just do a bunch of thin coats that's what gives it that deep shine I usually end up with 5-10 coats just depends on how thick they are. I was trying to upload picks of the stuff but it keeps saying error for some reason.

I looked at the bottle, and it's called griot's garage complete compound, and complete polish, and it say it can be applied by hand. It's about $12 bucks a bottle, but it is by far the best stuff I have ever used. I use almost all griot's products when I detail cars, and people say they actually look better then they did new. Plus when your done you can save the leftover to buff out your ride.

Yes I use Valspar high gloss black, then just any clear will work, and I use 400 grit to start with, then after many coats of paint, I use 1400 grit to smooth it out. You want to do like 5-6 thin coats, to give it that deap shiny look. Then after I have all the paint, and clear done, I polish it just like you would a car. Polish, then a good wax if you want to really make it pop, and hide any imperfections. I use Greot's garage all in one correcting cream, and a orbital buffer, but I got a detail shop so I already have the stuff, but you can do it by hand just fine, just takes longer.

Wow, what a turn out !!! Wish I could have been there.

I've stayed out of this until now. This is ridiculous. PERIOD. I understand the rep feature is in place because it's favorable on other types of social media and that is the ONLY reason the software provider has coded it into the forum. Here it serves absolutely NO purpose other than to stir shit. Nothing else. Most people here, come here for no BS, and to get THE best advice. We don't need a rep system to alert people of bullshit or bullshitters. They are easily and readily seen and called out. Billy Jack,I am going to give you some advice. I was once in your shoes, in fact you may be able to find some of my initial posts from when I first joined here to prove it. Perception is reality. You may think you are right, you may FEEL you are right. You may be right. . . . BUT when everyone else perceives you as wrong, you are wrong. You talk about M5's comments on subjective topics. Unfortunately, it is your own subjectivity which denies you the ability to look at things objectively and see things from an open mind perspective. You may be passionate, you my be educated, you may be correct, you may even be one hell of a cool guy, but you carry yourself all wrong, and for that reason, you have ZERO credibility. Aaron, this is your forum,and you do as you please, but the rep system, IMO, is childish and not needed here. I will comment no further.
