Re: Clear over polished grille

I tried the perma clear today. Tired of constantly polishing the inprotected aluminum, constant battle.
First was to polish with Mothers mag and aluminum polish and microfiber buff by hands . Absolutely amazing stuff by the way.
Then directions for permaclear say to wipe metal with baking soda and water to mutrelize any acid from the polish
Then wipe down with denature alcohol or xylene
Use denatured alcohol! Xylene is nasty stuff. Very high VOC
I bought 4oz bottle and applied with foam brush.
Laid down like a spray finish. Pretty thin stuff.
Anyway. Looks great and I'll post in a month to see how sits holding up.
I think we have something here though
See pics.
Mark.
