Tamiya Pearl White Spray Question
Hi, today I painted my 300zx pearl white. It looks great and it does have some shine but not mirror like. If I used Compound then Wax will it be shiy and mirror like finish? If anyone has prior experience with pearl white please let me know if it was shinier after you Compounded then waxed it.. Thanks :flash:

Always clear coat Tamiya Mica's, Metallics and Pearls for maximum shine. If you rub them without clear coat, you are disturbing the pearl/metallic/mica particles that are laying just under the surface. Your finish will look uneven if rubbed without clear coat.
