I am very seriously considering wax. The scrubbing from the CLR already gave the bed a bit of reflective properties. I need to go over the whole hood cause in fluorescent light you can see where I scrubbed, it’s shinier.
The only thing is I don’t want it to look like it’s fake patina or something. Do you have any pictures of vehicles you’ve done? And are some waxes less “shiny” than others? I’ve never even waxed anything before. Thanks for the help by the way.
