Will try to go in earlier tomorrow to get off in time to wash it down and head to the BBQ. Seen the new rims again today would have stopped but I had food delivery for the family with me, would have been way cold if I started talking cars lol.
Okay tell where I am going wrong here. I have the various fine grit sand paper and I also purchased steel wool as well. I have the PlastX compound as well as another brand of headlight cleaner (which does not work nearly as well as PlastX). My thoughts are that I merely don't have enough muscle to polish it out by hand and I need a porter cable or buffer to really polish out the lens? Can you buy those at advanced auto as well??
