no its something you put on a DA and use it wet which takes out most of the flatting scratches which make it a hell of alot easier to polish up.

I painted the cage outside the car to make sure everything is covered as its a nightmare when the cage is inside as i found when i painted my twin engine back end. Then welded the cage in and repainted the full floor.
I have done the car in 2k mate its alot more forgiving

Trizac - only way i can explain is its like 3000 grit paper you can use wet on a DA Sander. You flat the paint with 1500's an go over with Trizac and you get a perfect finish like glass......

Another UPDATE....
car is starting to go together again.
Cage welded in
Engine is back in and turning over (has fuel and spark)
Everything is looking good for PVS aslong as the MOT all go's to plan
Seats are just placed in not bolted yet before anyone says they do not look right


Test fitted the bumper to see if everything was hidden as Neil dident want anything on show.


Still abit of tidying upto do but left my bag of 'P' clips at home


Cage all welded and interior back in


Enjoy
