Nice work!! the place looks like a lab, not work shop. Congrats
[quote=”jim c” post=30925]i have probably done a few hundred lights and never used adpro under any of them. always goto 600-800. usually 800 though is where i like to be with them. i have seen some headlights just buffed and within a couple months start to cloud and turn again and i have seen others last a year like ding said. maybe its just in the plastic they use from different manufacturers, who knows. it really simple to shoot a couple coats of clear on them though. most of the lights i am doing the customers want them tinted as well. just a few drops of black candy in the clear does the trick with that. whats nice is i dont ever remove them. the customers walk in and hand me all the lights they want done. makes it easy[quote]
I have sanded and buffed many headlights without any problems, if you don’t sand the fading enough, u will have fading in a short time, I personally start with 320 and go all the way to 3000 after that very little polishing is needed. If you polish them is no need for masking and/or removal.IMHO

Said to him wouldn’t be worth the chance and tried explaining it’ll make no difference to the finished job but he’s got a bad dose of the “customer is always right” disease think I will tell him if he wants me till do the job it’ll be with new products or take it somewhere else :hunt[/quote]

[quote=”Jayson M” post=30505]Increase your distance on your last coat and spray medium wet coats,too dry and it will cause adhession issues and feel like a piece of 40grit sandpaper when you go to tack it off …..[/quote]
I always spray the last coat at twice the distance, medium wet is the key, at least for me :deadhorse

I agree, it does not make sense but, to each it’s own. :wak :wak [quote=”ding” post=30220]Looks good. I dont understand why people just dont buy the right car to start out with. they cheap out and buy a base model then spend the coin to make it look like something else. Kinda like the people that buy a brand new car then what to know how much for a color change cause they really dont like the color they bought :wak[/quote]
