Here's a write up from our friends at Adam's Australia:

 

 

 

Hello Ladies and Gentleman,

 

Some of you may have seen a recent post of mine regarding a hood/bonnet found at a local Wrecker.

 

The back story can be found here: Adam's Polishes Results - Adam's Polishes Forums

 

Mook asked if I had taken pictures of the process and I did, so here they are.

So what happened to the bubbled up paint?

 

 

Yep, it's still there.

 

This was just a junk panel grabbed from the junkyard to show the capibility of our polishes. Fixing bubbled paint is a project for another day. ;)
