Thumbs up Color Sand and M105 results

Long story very short, my wife had my SS repainted a metallic black and it has some overspray and orange peel. I tried to color sand it with 2000 grit sand paper and waxing it, but I ended up with this:



After consulting the Meguiar's forum, I was informed of this little jewel called M105. So I ordered it up and tried it out, this is the results:



Very impressive product, I love the more detail reflection versus the as-sprayed glow of light. I am a converted die-hard Meguiar's enthusiast. Now I can remove some orange peel from this paint job and not be embarassed of the quality. It will turn out looking fantastic, which I will post pictures when I am done with the entire car. This is a dialy driver, so I am not going for car show winning results, nor do I have the skills for that. I will be doing one panel each week and taking my time.

M105 is magic in a bottle. You should stop by the Meguiars Open Garage nights when they start back up, if you're not working.

Thanks guys!

And yes, I am considering going to their weekend course. I even signed up the Mrs. car for a makeover.

Now begins the laborious task of doing the whole car.
