Wet sanded and polished the clear using a polishing kit with grits from 3200 to 12000. Finished up with Maguiar's Cleaner Wax. I like the Maguiar's because it also eliminates the swirl marks left by the grits. I like to use a chamois to take off the wax......

what shade did you use?[/quote Thanks, there was an article in Scaleauto magazine about a month or two ago about using waterbased paints and pastels, it is a combination of that. I also used some textured paint for the floor mats and interior in several different shades.
